Baker Five-Bet Success

Matt Affleck opened to 250,000 from under the gun only to have David Baker three-bet from the cutoff to 875,000.

With the action on William Thorson on the button, he four-bet to 2,200,000 total to prompt a fold from Affleck.

Baker then moved all in for 4,115,000 to put Thorson deep into the tank.

After roughly three minutes of contemplating, Thorson tossed his cards into the muck to see Baker climb to 6,805,000 as Thorson slips to 6,500,000 in chips.
