Thirlwell Sends One to the Rail; Mufti Emerges With Big Stack
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Kyna England raised to 1,300 from the cutoff and the button called before Steve Thirlwell came along from the small blind and the big blind went all in for his last 6,200. England and the button got out of the way and Thirlwell called to put the big blind at risk.
Big Blind: 
Steve Thirlwell: 
The flop ran out 
and Thirlwell flopped three nines. The turn and river were no help to the big blind and they were headed for the rail while Thirlwell stacked up the chips.
Elsewhere in the room, Mohammad Mufti has emerged with one of the top early stacks.
