Birthday Boy Meadowcroft Takes One Down
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Patrick Meadowcroft, who tells PokerNews that it's his 84th birthday is celebrating it here at the BPO Florida World Championship and making a run at Day 2.
in a recent hand after defending his big blind to a raise from Tuan Phan in early position, the duo checked the 8?7?4? flop to see the K? come in on the turn.
Meadowcroft checked again, then called a bet of 7,000 from Phan. On the 10? river, Meadowcroft bet 20,000, leaving himself just 6,000 behind.
Phan showed the K? and folded, telling Meadowcroft that he can't possibly be bluffing.
The birthday boy dragged the pot and continues his march toward the money.
