Blackwood Backs Down to Vandenberge's Back-Shove
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Kyna England raised to 800 from middle position and was called by Thomas Vandenberge in the hijack and Daniel Ruttenberg on the button. Gary Blackwood then squeezed to 3,700 from the big blind, which got a fold from England, but a shove from Vandenberge for a bit under 50,000.
Ruttenberg got out of the way, and Blackwood asked for a count before sending his cards into the muck as well.
"Would you have called if it wasn't a freezeout?" tablemate Cassandra Yong asked from across the table.
"Gazzy too poor!" England joked.
