Murry Moves Up

A player in the cutoff opened with a raise to 800, and Mike "WiscoMurry" Murry bumped it up to 2,100. The big blind overcalled, and the cutoff came along with the extra amount to see a three-way flop.

It brought {9-?} {8-?} {6-?}, and the betting passed to Murry. He continued out with a bet of 3,100. The big blind was the only caller this time, and the turn card paired the board with another {9-?}. The two men check-checked it, and the river double-paired the board with another {8-?}. The big blind fired out a bet of 4,000, and Murry insta-called.

The big blind sheepishly tabled {10-?} {J-?}, and Murry proudly tabled {A-?} {K-?} to take the pot with his ace kicker.
