Routos Rakes Some in

James Routos' stack has been up and down as of late, but he recently pulled in a nice pot to get back over 20K.

Action began with the player in the cutoff seat, who opened for 900. Routos 3-bet to 2500 even and was cold-called by the player in the small blind. Everyone else folded.

The flop came {Q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{7-Spades} and the small blind checked. Routos immediately announced, "All in," sending his opponent deep into the tank.

"That's a big c-bet," he said before finally mucking.

Routos is back up to 24,000 following the hand.
