Machen's River Barrel Gets Through
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
John Machen opened the action from the hijack with a raise to 700. The cutoff, button, small and big blind all came along for the call.
Machen continued for 1,200 on a monotone K♠10♠J♠ flop and only the small blind player made the call.
The turn 2♥ hit the felt and Machen fired 4,400. Once again his opponent flicked in a chip for a call.
Machen asked for 11,000 of the small blind's chips on the 6♦ river but his opponent released his hand back to the dealer.
