Nick "FU_15" Maimone raised to 150 and was called by the next player to act. The button then reraised to 450. Maimone and the other player both tossed in the chips to make the call.

The three players saw the flop come down {10-Spades}

. Action checked around and the turn brought the {8-Clubs}

. Maimone took the lead with a bet of 575. The next player called and then button folded.

The river was the {J-Clubs}

and Maimone fired the same bet of 575. His opponent hesitated, but then made the call. Maimone announced, "I have a pair of sevens." before tabling {7-Spades}

. His opponent checked his hole cards once more and then mucked.

Maimone has built up nicely in the early going and is sitting on a stack of roughly 24,000 chips.
