Hawkins Soars

[user340040]

Level 6 : 300/600, 100 ante

With about 14,000 in the pot and the board reading a player in early position led out for 4,000. Maurice Hawkins called in the hijack seat. The river was the and the player that led on the turn, checked. Hawkins quickly fired out a bet of 6,000 sending his opponent into the tank. After taking his time to assess, he elected to fold and showed Hawkins pocket jacks. Hawkins said, "Nice fold, I had you," reassuring his opponent. Hawkins has been in complete control as a player at his table was overheard saying, "This is his table, we just fight for the hands he doesn't want to play." Seems like a good image to have.
