Lee Markholt Takes A Nice Pot From Oppenheim

Oct 21, 2009

A player opens the pot for a 1,600 raise and Lee Markholt reraises from the cut off to 5,400.  David Oppenheim then reraises to 15,000 out of the big blind.  The original raiser gets out of the way and after  using his pattented stare down on Oppenheim, Markholt makes the call.

The flop comes [Qd7d6d] and both players check.  The turn brings a fourth diamond with the [9d] and Oppenheim leads out for 15,000.  Markholt calls.

The river is the [Jc] and after a check from Oppenheim Markholt bets 15,000 into the 62,000 pot.  Oppenheim mucks his hand and Markholt takes it down.

David Oppenheim – 50,000
Lee Markholt – 115,000
