Michael Kim Falcon Takes Two Sizable Pots

Level 4 : 200/400, 50 ante

After an early open, Michael Kim Falcon made it 3,500 on the button. The opener came back with a four-bet to 8,500, and Falcon called. Falcon called barrels of 9,000 on the {6-Hearts}{7-Spades}{10-Hearts} flop and 17,000 on the {2-Hearts} turn. Both players checked the {8-Clubs} river, and Falcon showed {8-Hearts}{8-Spades} for a set and took the pot.

A couple of hands later, Falcon tangled with the player on his right, the two seeing a final board of {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{3-Hearts}. The first player bet 6,500, and Falcon min-raised to 13,000. His opponent released after some thought, sending another decent-sized pot Falcon's way.
