Binger v. Tamayo

Nick Binger has kicked up the aggression even one more notch now that we're three handed. He has been raising nearly every pot two-and-a-half times the big blind, putting in 25,000 chips. Essentially, he is artificially increasing the betting limits, and he can afford to with his plethora of chips. This has the effect of stifling his opponents' decisions, and makes the relative size of his chip lead seem even larger.

Jonathan Tamayo is not backing down from mega-stacked Nick Binger though. While Frank Gary is sitting tight and quiet, it is apparent that Tamayo is more than willing to get into pots with the leader. More than half of the time Binger raises, Tamayo is right there calling, regardless of the position. We'll have to wait and see how it works out for Tamayo as he continues to tangle with Binger.
