Young Versus Old
It hasn't taken long for some big action to take place, with the young Brendon Rubie going head to head with local veteran Peter Aristidou.
Play folded to Arisitdou on the button and he made the call before action came to Rubie in the small blind. Rubie popped it to 1,025 which was enough to get rid of the big blind, before sending the action back to Aristidou. Aristidou made the call and it was on for young and old!
Rubie would check his option on the flop and Aristidou would make it 1,200. Rubie called and we would see the roll out on the turn. Another check from Rubie and Aristidou would fire again, this time with 2,700. Another call from Rubie would see the hit the river. Rubie again checked to his agressor and Aristidou fired another bullet.
Rubie elected to again make the call as Aristidou turned over for a pair of nines. Rubie's would be enough to take down the pot and move his stack to around 42,000 early on Day 1.
