Esposito Wins Another

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

John Esposito, still working on the same lollipop, raised under the gun and was only called by the big blind.

The big blind drew one, as did Esposito. Action was then checked to Esposito, who bet and was called.

On the second draw, both players again took one card and the big blind checked for a second time. Esposito declined to inflate the pot, instead opting to check behind.

The final draw saw the big blind stand pat while Esposito drew another card. With less than a big bet behind, the big blind checked to Esposito who, eyeing his opponent's stack, queried, "is it more fun with you here?". Seeming to decide that the answer was yes, Esposito checked back and showed down , which the short stacked big blind could not beat.
