Action Dan

Dan Harrington is in the building, the old poker guard veteran seems to have this whole Main Event thing down pat. The man has made four Main Event final tables in his lifetime, and has even taken down the whole thing once already.

Harrington can be seen mixing it up in the Amazon room. We recently caught up with him while he was getting involved in a pot. The flop read {3-Spades}{5-Spades}{7-Clubs}. The small blind checked, and a player in early position bet out 450. Next it was on Harrington in the cutoff and he made the call. The small blind snap called and all three players were granted access to the turn.

The {8-Spades} then showed its face on fourth street and both the small blind and the early position player checked, prompting a bet of 900 from Harrington. The small blind surrendered and the early position player made the call.

The {6-Clubs} on the river allowed for both players to knuckle the felt for checks. The early position player flipped over {9-Clubs}{9-Spades} for a straight and Harrington mucked his cards.
