Begleiter Wants to Play a Big Pot

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

When we walked up to Vanessa Selbst her new table we were just in time to see her call a 3-bet in position for 8,000 total. Selbst apparently had opened to 2,600 from mid-position and it was Steven Begleiter in the small blind who had put the pressure on.

{Q-Hearts}{J-Spades}{3-Clubs} on the flop and Begleiter followed his preflop agression up with a 9,500 continuation-bet. Selbst made the call and the dealer had to do some work again: {9-Hearts} on the turn. Begleiter waisted no time and announced allin for, what appeared, just about 60,000. Vanessa Selbst had about the same stack left and gave it some good thoughts, before folding.
