Hook Snags a Pot

Dan O'Hair

Level 6 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Charles Hook opened to 35,000 and was called by Henrik Hecklen on the button, Ben Heath in the small blind, and Artur Martirosian in the big blind for a four-way pot.

Action checked through on the 6?5?5? flop and Heath checked again on the 8? turn, prompting a 52,000 bet from Martirosian. Only Hook called.

The A? completed the board and Martirosian checked to Hook, who bet 160,000. Martirosian folded and Hook collected the pot.
