Scott Chips Up After Break
Ian Steinman was on the button and three-bet to 3,300 over a hijack open to 700 and a call from the cutoff. Jason Scott cold four-bet out of the small blind to 11,000. Action folded back around to Steinman and he thought for a while before pushing his cards forward onto the felt, resulting in the hand being sent to Scott.
A few hands later, Scott opened from the hijack and was called by players on the button and in the big blind. The flop came and both the big blind and Scott checked. The player on the button fired 1,000, getting a fold from the big blind. Scott called.
The turn came and Scott again checked to his opponent on the button, who continued with another 1,700. Scott called. The river fell and action went check-check to take the hand to showdown.
Scott tabled for two pair, eights and deuces, and his opponent mucked to earn him a second pot in the first same orbit.
