Weatherly Moves Into Chip Lead
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
After an open to 7,000 preflop, Truman Weatherly made the call but then the big blind three-bet to 18,000. Both players made the call and went three ways to a flop of 4♥7♦8♠. The action checked to Weatherly who led out for 50,000 and then the big blind check-raised all in for around 150,000. The other opponent hastily got out of the way but Weatherly snapped it off to put him at risk.
Big Blind: A♥K♥
Truman Weatherly: 4♣4♦
Weatherly was a massive favorite with his set of fours and the turn 8♥ left his opponent drawing stone dead as he improved to a full house. The river 7♥ gave his opponent a worthless flush as his chips were shipped over to Weatherly to make him the dominant chip leader with over half a million.
