Baldwin Hit With a Six

When we got to the table, the board read and a player in middle position had a bet of 300 in front of him. Eric Baldwin then made a reraise to 800 and was called.

The turn was the and the player first to act immediately bet out 1,000. This put Baldwin in the tank and prompted him to ask, "Did the six hit you?"

"Yes, I show it," the other player said. "I have a set of sixes."

After some thought Baldwin bet enough to put the other player all in for 3,325 and was quickly met with a call. Baldwin held but he needed to catch up against his opponents .

The river was the and the flush was good enough to scoop the pot.

"The six really did hit you," Baldwin said after the hand as he dropped to just under starting stack.
