Hi Albatrini

Hi Thorek

BongBob is already up to 57.000 chips.

He 4bet preflop and bet the AT7 Flop with AK, got check-minraised, called the flop, another bet on the K turn and a third barrel on a blank river. He won the showdown against pocket 99.

Familypot only a few hands later. BongBob hit a set of fives on the A56 Flop, continuationbet by the initial raiser, BongBob called and the SmallBlind check/raised the field, one player called and so did BongBob. 6 on the turn and Q on the river, two big bets by the SB and a calldown by BongBob who won the showdown mit a fullhouse against top2pair AQ.
