Easy Money
At former EPT finalist Laurent Michot's table, half of the table is empty because some players haven't taken their seats yet. However, their stacks are in play, so when there are no players in the blinds, there is a bit of dead money.
Michot took advantage of the situation and won a few limped pots. However, he lost the blinds he won after a player under the gun limped. A player in middle position bet 300, and Michot called from the cutoff, while the button and the blinds were absent.
The player under the gun also called, and all three players checked on the flop 2♣A♠A♦. The turn was the 7♣. This time, the player in middle position bet 300. Michot was the only one to call.
The river brought the 6♠. Both players checked and the player in middle position revealed 3♠3♣ for two pair. Michot's hand wasn't better, so he folded.
