Matt Affleck is playing today's six-max event while sporting a fresh #3 Russell Wilson jersey. After his last hand moved him to more than double the starting stack, Affleck is emulating another Seattle Seahawk superstar in running back Marhsawn Lynch- powering through the competition and refusing to be taken down.
We watched Affleck open the pot for a raise to 700 holding the button, with the big blind the lone player to come along. On the flop both players tapped the table, but when the turn card came Affleck fired out a 1,000 bet after another check to him. His opponent flatted and the river came , prompting a third check to Affleck, who responded with a bet of 2,200.
His opponent tanked for thirty seconds before ultimately making the crying call, but Affleck tabled to take the pot down. We watched Affleck earn two or three more uncontested pots with preflop raises, and he now sits with more than 46,000 for a great start to his first tournament of the Borgata Winter Poker Open.
