Raymer Breaks Out the Six-Bet
The small blind cold four-bets to 18,000. Big blind folded, and it was back to the original raiser. Does he flat here? Shove? Nope. He re-re-repopped it to 34,800 total, leaving himself about 200k behind. Obvious snap fold from the player behind him, right? Not exactly. He tanked, and tanked, and eventually someone called the clock on him. As the floor was counting down, he gave it up.
And then Fossilman shipped in his stack for the rarely seen six-bet shove. Raymer had 77,600 behind, only about 7k more than the size of the pot. The five-bettor found a fold, and Raymer almost doubled his stack without seeing a flop. "I have to admit my six-betting range their is pretty slim," laughed Raymer.
Editor's note: We've since learned that Mr. Five Bet was Jason "themasterj33" Dewitt, who tweeted that he had jacks.
