Madsen Five-Bet Shoves Into Karr

The player under the gun opened the betting with a raise to 1,200 only to have Jeff Madsen three-bet to 4,225 from middle position. Action then folded around to McLean Karr in the big blind.

"How much you start the hand with?" asked Karr.

"About thirty-four," replied Madsen.

Karr thought for a moment before pushing out a four-bet to 8,950 total. The under the gun player quickly got rid of his cards and Madsen replied to Karr by moving all in for around 34,000 total. Karr did not looked pleased.

"I have a hand," said Karr.

Karr tanked for over two minutes before finally flinging his cards to the muck and allowing Madsen to take down the pot.
