Tilly Takes a Few
Level 6
: 150/300, 25 ante
Jennifer Tilly has had a relatively successful first five-and-a-half levels today, having built her starting stack of 15,000 up over 50,000. She'd slipped back a touch when the following hand took place.
Tilly opened with a raise to 775 from the cutoff, and a short-stacked player on the button called the raise. The small blind then made it 3,000 to go, forcing out the BB. Tilly sat quietly for a moment, looking through her mirrored sunglasses, then made the call. The short stack got out of the way.
The flop came . The small blind checked, and Tilly took that as an invitation to bet 4,000. Her opponent thought about a half-minute, then let his hand go.
Tilly is now back to about 45,000 as we approach the dinner break.
