Level 17
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
David "Bakes" Baker has a laid back personality, a cool nickname, and after the last hand he played, a stack that is now as high as a kite.
Bakes called a raise of 13,000 out of the big blind, seeing a flop of spread across the green felt. The early position raiser continued with his aggressive line, leading for 14,000, and Baker came along to see the drop on the turn.
After his opponent fired up another bet of 33,000 his way, Bakes made the call, bringing the on board.
Both players knuckled the table, and when he rolled over , Bakes top pair blazed a path to yet another potential final table appearance.
