Baldwin Wins a Monster With the Correct Call

Eric "basebaldy" Baldwin was faced with calling 55,000 from Tristan Wade on the river of a {Q-Spades} {J-Spades} {3-Clubs} {3-Spades} {9-Spades} board. Baldwin had about 110,000 left in his stack before making the call and said "I'm leaning towards calling." as he looked over at Wade. "If you are bluffing, you do look good doing it." he added.

Eventually, Baldwin made the call and Wade immediately nodded his head before tabled {A-Hearts} {8-Clubs}. Baldwin showed {A-Diamonds} {A-Clubs}.

"Must be nice." commented Phil Hellmuth after the hand. "Must be nice."

Baldwin is up to around 265,000 and Wade is down to 63,000.
