Scott Still Climbing

Kara Scott was all smiles after picking off a bluff in a recent hand. Scott had the button and reraised preflop to 3,000 after a player opened from middle position to 1,025. That player called and check-called another 4,000 on a flop of {2-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} {A-Diamonds}. When the turn fell {2-Clubs}, Scott's opponent led into her for 6,700. Scott called that bet and then found herself facing a hefty bet of 17,500 on the {6-Diamonds} river. Scott called again.

"Nice hand," her opponent said, mucking his hand. Scott opened {A-Hearts} {3-Hearts} for two pair, aces and deuces, and collected the pot. Her count climbed to 63,000.
