Starostin Wins a Big Pot Early
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
On a three-handed table, the small blind player called and Ivan Starostin checked his option from the big blind and the players headed to a flop of 3♣8♠3♥.
The small blind led with a bet of 700. Starostin called and the dealer burned and turned the 10♦,
The big blind player continued his aggression by tossing out a bet of 1,500 before watching as Starostin made the call, prompting the dealer to put the J♥ out on the river.
The big blind quickly tossed out a single 5,000 chip and Starostin wasted little time before making the call and tabling before hearing his opponent say, "I think you've got me."
Starostin tabled the 3♦4♥ causing his opponent to quickly muck, awarding the pot to Starostin.
