David Baker, the Younger

Level 19 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Under the gun, Vanessa Peng opened to 13,000, and Eric Froehlich and David "Bakes" Baker both called, the latter coming along out of position from the big blind.

The flop came {7-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {Q-Spades}, and Peng continued out with 23,000 more. Froehlich quickly folded, Baker quickly called, and the {2-Hearts} landed on fourth street. Peng loaded up with another 34,000 and fired it into the pot, and Baker check-called once again. On the {7-Spades} river, Peng checked behind Baker's check.

Baker turned over {A-Clubs} {Q-Clubs}, and Peng quietly mucked, slipping back to about 320,000. Baker is on the rise, climbing to 470,000 as he stacks that pot.
