Level 3 : 150/300, 25 ante

Andrew Brinkley was in the cutoff and raised to 750. A player on the button called and the small blind three-bet to 2,400. Brinkley four-bet to 6,300, the button folded and the small blind called.

The flop was {7-}{4-}{5-} rainbow board and the small blind checked. Brinkley bet 7,800 and after some deliberation his opponent folded. Brinkley immediately flipped over his hand and showed {q-Spades}{j-Spades} and started speaking out loud saying, "You guys wanna keep three-betting me... well here you go. This is what happens when you keep three-betting me. Lets go, I'll play with y'all!" Brinkley raked in the pot and has more than doubled his starting stack.
