James Picks Off Murphy's Bluff
Level 3
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Bobby James raised to 700 from the hijack before Thomas Murphy three-bet to 3,100 from the small blind. James called.
Murphy continued with a bet of 3,500 on the 9?J?6? flop. James slid in the call.
Murphy didn't slow down upon seeing the 3? come on the turn as he put out a bet of 9,500. James once again made the call.
The 2? dropped on the river and Murphy unloaded the clip, shoving for 27,000. James thought it over for quite some time before eventually flicking in the call.
Murphy flipped over 8?7? for eight-high. James had that beat with top pair holding J?10?, and Murphy was the first elimination of the day.
