The Five-Bet Jam from Staats
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Randall Brooks opened to 23,000 and was then three-bet by Chris Staats to 60,000. When action folded back to him, Brooks then put in the cold four-bet to 115,000, but Staats responded with the five-bet jam, covering Brooks.
Brooks then went into the tank for a good while, as he would be risking his tournament life.
"You got the goods?" he asked Staats, who did not give any response, "The five-bet is pretty strong."
After another thirty seconds, Brooks decided to let it go and the pot was pushed over to Staats for a nice pickup.
