Quack, Quack

Antes are in play now and I expect this to stir things up and create bigger pots and therefore more eliminations.

In this hand it was folded around to Cory Albertson on the button who raised, and Juha Vilkki called before a flop came {5-Spades} {Q-Clubs} {10-Hearts}.

Both players checked before the turn came {2-Diamonds}. This time Vilkki check-called a bet of 1,200 from Albertson.

The river saw Albertson move all in after it was checked to him a third time. Vilkki stood up and made the call all in, but quickly left the area when Albertson revealed {2-Clubs} {2-Spades} for a turned set.

Albertson is up to 27,300 now.
