Batista Takes Small One

Another late arrival today, we found Chad Batista entering the pot with a raise to 275 from early position only to be three-bet to 875 from a player in middle position.

With the action back on Batista, he made the call and checked dark as the dealer produced a {10-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs} flop and his opponent checked behind also.

The turn landed the {Q-Diamonds} and Batista checked only to be faced with a bet of 1,000.

Batista opted to play the highly effective check-raise card making it 2,500 to go to prompt a rather hasty fold from his opponent to see him climb up to 29,200 in chips.
