Anna Wroblewski, Pot Thief

Anna Wroblewski swiped an early pot from a big blind who called her preflop raise to 275. The {10-Spades}{6-Spades}{8-Diamonds} flop brought checks, and Wroblewski fired 450 after being checked to on the {5-Spades} turn.

Wroblewski flashed pocket threes while raking the pot, prompting her opponent to say, "You made me lay down the winning hand."

Anna replied, "I didn't -- you laid (them) down yourself."

"But you raised preflop," came the response. "Just limp."

"I don't ever raise three times the blinds," said Anna, redirecting the conversation.

She's up to 4,500 as the first break nears.
