Bazeley Gets Lucky to Take Over Chip Lead
Action folded to Houston White in the cutoff and he brought it in for a raise to 35,000. Jacob Bazeley was next to act on the button and he three-bet to 110,000. The blinds got out of the way and White pushed back with a four-bet, making it 200,000 more to go. Bazeley pondered for a bit before announcing all in for about 650,000 more. White made the call, and at first, he was glad he did.
