Noeh Boeken Continues His Climb

After the player under the gun limped two other players limped as well. Noah Boeken put an end to that on the button with a 1,500 raise and the under the gun player was the only one who called. The flop came {Q-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {2-Spades} and the other player check-called Boeken's 2,500 bet. He check-called again when the {2-Clubs} turned and Boeken bet 4,000. The {7-Hearts} fell on the river and the other player moved all in for 6,625. Boeken took some time before making the call, to find that his {A-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} were indeed good against his opponent's {10-Hearts} {10-Diamonds}. Boeken is now up to 54,000.
