"They Know the Dog by Name"
Ray Henson opened to 2,500 from under the gun and was called by Judge Leo Boothe out of middle position. Grant Hart was in the hijack and three-bet to 8,500. The small blind then called all in for 8,200 and Henson called the three-bet. Boothe folded and 600 went into the side pot for any further action.
The flop fell and both players checked. The turn came and Henson bet 8,000. Hart called and the river fell . Henson checked and quickly folded upon a bet of 8,000 from Hart.
"I can't win," said the all-in player, tabling . Hart showed for a flopped set of tens and took down both the main and side pots.
With the pots, the man formerly learned to be known as "The Cowboy," finds himself above three starting stacks. He affirmed the nickname, adding, "They know the dog by name!"
