The First One to Scott
Level 23
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
In early position, Robert Scott came into the pot limping, and Ed Cotter raised to 40,000 from the cutoff seat. Scott called the remainder, and the two men took a flop. Scott checked, then called a continuation bet of 50,000 from Cotter.
Both men check-checked through the turn and river.
Scott slapped his down on the felt, and the hooks were good enough to drag that pot. Scott moves up to about 530,000 with that increase, knocking Cotter back around 560,000 in the process.
