Picking a Good Spot to Raise

Paul Triandifillou opened with a raise to 9,000 from the hijack position. Jamie Pickering made the call from the cutoff. Two more players ducked out of the way before James Kronos called out of the big blind.

The flop came down {6-Hearts}

and each player checked.

The turn came the {7-Diamonds}

and Kronos checked with first action. Triandifillou bet 10,000 and then action was on PIckering. He asked how much the pot was and then made a raise to 39,000. Kronos quickly folded his hand. Triandifillou paused for some thought as Pickering began stacking out his chips, but then folded.

Pickering increased to slightly over 100,000 chips on the hand.
