Woodward Chopped Down

Jacob Rasmussen, Matt Woodward, and a third player saw a flop of {7-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{10-Hearts}. The action checked to Woodward, who fired 2,000, and Rasmussen check-raised to 6,600. The third player folded, and Woodward called.

The turn was the {5-Hearts}, and Rasmussen led out for 12,000. Woodward studied the Dane for the better part of two minutes, then grabbed two orange T5,000 chips and two yellow T1,000 chips, and tossed them forward to make the call.

The {9-Hearts} completed the board, and Rasmussen fired 25,000 - more than two thirds of his stack. Woodward released, and Rasmussen raked in the pot.
