Belsky Continues His Climb

Rich Belsky

Nothing seems to be slowing down Rich Belsky today. The Friend of Team DeepStacks recently got involved in a pot that pushed him above the 60K mark, making him one of the bigger stacks we've seen today.

With around 3,500 in the pot preflop, Belsky and two others saw a flop of {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}. The player in the small blind led out for 2,025, and Belsky announced a raise before tossing in a single 5,000 chip. The third player folded and the small blind decided to call, leaving around 12,000 behind.

The {9-Spades} hit the turn and the small blind check to Belsky, who bet 20,000. The threat of being eliminated was enough to force the small blind to fold, and Belsky raked in a pot worth more than 13,000.
