Harrington Straightens Out His Opponent

"Action Dan" Harrington
"Action Dan" Harrington
On a flop of {10-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {9-Spades}, Dan Harrington took the lead with a bet of 1,200. His lone opponent came along with the call, and the turn card revealed the {6-Diamonds}. Harrington kept the heat on with another bet, 3,100 this time. Once more, his opponent made the call to see the river bring the {2-Hearts}. Harrington fired 4,000 chips into the pot, and his opponent matched the bet for the final time.

Harrington tabled {10-Diamonds} {7-Spades}, and his straight to the ten was good enough to earn him that nice little pot. After stacking up his new chips, Harrington has moved himself up to about 59,000 just as the final break of Day 1a approaches.
