Ladies and Gentlemen: the First Cold Four-Bet
Level 1
: 50/75, 0 ante
There must have been numerous cold four bets in the $500 Employees Event by now, but we just witnessed the first cold four-bet in this event.
Marvin Rettenmaier opened the button to 225 after which the small blind bumped the action to 600. Erick Lindgren in the big blind made it 1,175 to go and Rettenmaier folded after much deliberation. The small blind made the call however and the two took a look at 
. Both players checked and did so again after the dealer put the 
down as the turn. The river brought both players the 
and the small blind bet out 1,300. Erick checked his hand again and folded rather quickly.
