Nakai Climbs Higher

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Ryuta Nakai raised to 1,100 from early position, which Erik Baum and Glenn Cozen called from the cutoff and big blind.

The action checked through on a J63 flop, but Nakai picked his betting lead back up on the 9 turn, with a bet of 2,100. Baum called, but Cozen folded.

The 10 completed the board, and Nakai fired 8,000 into the pot. That was enough to see Baum cede, as he folded his hand.
