Tabb Four-Bets for the Win

[user340040]

Niveau 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Steven Tabb was in late position and raised to 11,500. He was called by the hijack and the cutoff. The small blind three-bet to 45,500, putting the action back on Tabb. After some deliberation, Tabb moved all in for roughly 190,000. The hijack and cutoff both folded, and the small blind peeked back at his cards before sending them to the muck, as well.

Tabb has a WSOP Circuit ring and a handful of WSOP Circuit final tables on his record but is still looking for his breakthrough summertime performance.

Make Money Laddering

Niveau 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

With the board showing 414 remaining (but likely a few less than that), there is a pay jump. Eliminated players are now getting $4,235 apiece instead of the previous $3,793.

If a player can hang on to their stack until there are 351 players remaining, they will be looking at a payout of $4,768, an increase of $533. Weigh that against the $1,500 entry fee, and certain decisions take on a different light for different players.
