Big Blind Special

John Murphy and one other player limp before the big blind min-raises to 100. Both players call.

The flop comes {5-Clubs} {9-Hearts} {J-Clubs} before the big blind leads out for 200. Only John Murphy calls.

The turn comes {6-Clubs} and John Murphy calls another 200 bet.

The river brings {4-Spades} and Murphy calls a 300 bet this time but mucks when he sees the big blind's {A-Diamonds} {A-Clubs}.

Murphy on 2,400 at this early stage.
