The "Alabama Cowboy" Shows the Power of the Reraise

Hoyt Corkins
Hoyt Corkins
An early-position player limped, as did Hoyt Corkins in the small blind. The big blind checked his option and the three players saw a flop of {J-Spades}{A-Clubs}{2-Clubs}. The early-position player checked, and Corkins bet 1,200. The big blind folded and the early-position player pondered for a bit, eventually sliding out 4,000 chips. With little hesitation, Corkins tossed out 14,200 more. The early-position player thought for upwards of two minutes, but eventually thought the better of it, tossing his cards into the muck. Corkins stacked the pot and is now sitting at about 48,000.
