Faetz Paid "Strange Amount" on the River
Level 12
: 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Stephen Faetz has flown under the radar somewhat today, but now has a stack of what can only be described as a healthy 160,000. His latest pot, caught from the turn on a 
board, saw him leading out from the small blind into two players (big blind Martin Foord and cutoff Brett Angell) for 5,500. Both of his opponents made the call, seeing the 
river. Faetz led out again, this time for 7,000. Foord folded quickly, but Angell thought out loud: "Strange amount...Neither a bet or a bluff? Blocker bet?"
Angell made the call in the end, but mucked on seeing Faetz's 
for flopped trips.
