Arends and Markholt Clash

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

The player in the under-the-gun position raised and Lee Markholt (cutoff), Allen Cunningham (small blind) and Jans Arends in the big blind called.

They all checked through the {8-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop to the {4-Hearts} on the turn. Cunningham checked, Arends bet 3,000. Only Markholt called.

The river completed the board with the {2-Spades} on which Arends continued with a bet of 7,000. Markholt folded.

The hand right after, Emile Schiff raised to 2,000 from late position and was called by Markholt in the hijack, Arend in the small blind and the player in the big blind.

The flop came {3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, both Arends, the big blind, and Schiff checked. Markholt bet 4,000. Arends raised to 11,000 without hesitation and picked up the whole pot as the rest quickly folded.
