Chevalier Crushing Early

[user162117]

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

Former ANZ Player of the Year Danny Chevalier just raked in a very large pot to see his stack rise to around 50,000. The hand started with the player in the hijack opening to 450. Chevalier was the lone caller from the big blind and at this point the dealer flipped over a flop.

Chevalier check-called a bet of 675 and then tapped the table again when a hit the turn. This time when the player bet 1,100, Chevalier would check-raise to 2,600. An eventual call would see a complete the board on the river. Chevalier slowly led for 5,650 here, forcing his opponent deep into the tank.

The player studied the board, studied Chevalier, counted his chips and studied the board some more. Eventually he called and then mucked when Chevalier tabled for a turned straight.
