Hillman Chips Up Through Bardah and Shimizu
Level 19
: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 0 ante
Nozomu Shimizu raised from the cutoff before Ronnie Bardah three-bet from the button. Louis Hillman called from the big blind and Shimizu tossed in a bet to call.
Action was three ways to the flop of 3♦10♦4♠ and it checked to Bardah for a bet from the button. Hillman raised and Shimizu called, but Bardah raised it up one more bet. Both players tossed it in and the turn was 6♦.
Hillman checked the turn and Shimizu bet. Bardah called and Hillman came along to see the 5♠ river.
Hillman committed his last 40,000 and Shimizu folded. Bardah let out a sigh and tossed in the chips to call. Hillman turned over 7♥7♣ and implored a gentleman on the rail to make some noise while he dragged the big pot. Bardah showed JxJx and tossed it in the muck.
