Preflop Tension: Badecker vs. Turker

Sadan Turker
Sadan Turker

Sometimes the best hands in poker are ones that you never even see a flop. Sadan Turker raised to 5,500 in the hijack seat and the action stopped cold dead at the feet of Andrew Badecker in the small blind. Badecker wears different coloured shades every day and today the green coloured shades were draped around his neck so we could see the glare as it fired into Turker. Badecker three-bet to 14,700 and the eyeballs in the room switched back to the lad from England. Turker went into his stack and pulled out a four-bet of 31,500 and gently pushed it into the middle. Back to Badecker and he didn't want any part of it and passed his cards to the dealer.
