Baxter's Check-Raise Takes Down Pot
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
A four-way hand took place when Jonathan Cohen opened under the gun to 8,000. Action folded to Evgeniy Tsyrenov who called. Both Billy Baxter and Faraz Jaka called from the small and big blind respectively to take four players to the flop.
The wet flop of 5♣6♦4♣ began with a check from Baxter before Jaka slid out 8,000. Cohen folded leading to Tsyrenov calling.
Baxter responded with a check raise to 40,000 folding out Jaka.
Tsyrenov mulled over his decision before letting go of his hand awarding the pot to Baxter, who flashed the 7♣ to the table as he raked in the chips.
