Overton Climbing

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante

Aaron Overton opened the action with a raise to 450 from the cutoff. The player on the button quickly three-bet to 1,550 and it folded back to Overton. He cut out a four-bet to 4,000 straight and his opponent called.

The dealer spread {4-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{A-Spades} on the felt and the action went check-check. The {6-Diamonds} fell on the turn and once again prompted no action as both players checked their options.

The river was the {2-Hearts} and Overton moved out a bet of 6,600. His opponent called and Overton rolled over {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} for top-top. Overton's opponent mucked and the pot was pushed to Overton.

Overton is looking for a strong showing today and looking to repeat his Day 1 performance from last year. At the end of both Day 1 flights, it was Overton who led the field going into Day 2 just one year ago. He's currently well on the way to building a big stack with about 42,000 in chips.
