Tangling with the Big Stack

The blinds are currently 600/1,200, but when Brian Schaedlich is in town, the price of poker is necessarily going to be higher.

It folded around to Schaedlich who raised to 5,200 from the hijack seat, Devin Hammer called from the small blind, and Darrell Dicken called as well from the big blind.

All three checked the {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} flop. The turn brought the {3-Diamonds}. Hammer checked, Dicken bet 9,000, and Schaedlich let it go.

Schaedlich has now neatly positioned his gawdy number of chips into stacks before him. He's still around three-quarters of a million. Dicken is up to 95,000, and Hammer has about 21,000.
