Tim West Gets a Nice Bump

Tim "Tmay420" West cashed in the first $1k event this year and is back today hoping to go a little deeper. A player in middle position had raised to 250 with West calling from the cutoff.

The flop came {k-Spades}{a-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and the middle position player led out with a bet of 250. West made it 600 to go and his opponent called.

The player in middle position checked when the {j-Spades} came on the turn. He wasn't going to get a free card, though. West put 875 into the middle and his opponent tanked before making the call.

The river was the {9-Clubs} and action was once again checked to West, who went all in. His opponent tanked again before folding, but there were enough chips in the pot to boost West up to 8,500.
