Barnhart Gets Respect Early

We came to Sam Barnhart's table to see that he was getting involved early. Facing a raise to 250, and a call from La Sengphet, Barnhart raised to 1,050. The player in the big blind called, as did the original raiser, but Sengphet got out of the way.

The flop came out {2-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{3-Hearts}, and Barnhart wasted little time in betting out 1,300. The big blind folded, and the original raiser shook his head, folded {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} face up, and said, "ok now I believe you." Barnhart collected the pot, upping his stack to 22,000.
