Baron Booming

Isaac Baron has continued his late run to sit ever-higher on the chip leader board, managing to scoop up another pot that played out like so. Folded to Baron on the button, he raised it up to 1,000. Both the small blind and the big blind would make the call and the dealer would ready three cards for the felt.

Flop: {4-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

The small blind checked here and the big blind bet 2,500. Baron called and the small blind got out of the way. Both remaining players then checked the {q-Diamonds} turn and it was on to the {j-Hearts} river. The small blind led out for 4,300 and Baron called. Baron then tabled {j-Clubs}{5-Hearts}, enough to send his opponent's cards into the muck and rake in the pot.
