Twomley Takes a Chunk From Welsh

Level 1 : Limits 600/1,200, 0 ante

A pot of 6,900 had already built up preflop between Kerry Welsh and Jonathan Twomley.

Welsh checked from under the gun on the KKK flop and Twomley bet in the hijack. Welsh called.

After Welsh checked for a second time upon seeing the 8 turn, Twomley bet, and Welsh mistakenly check-raised. Twomley three-bet, which Welsh called.

Welsh check-called one final bet on the 8 river and Twomley showed AA for kings full of aces. Welsh tabled 77 and was playing the board as the large pot was pushed over to Twomley.
