Bell Doubles Through Ward
Action folded around to David "ODB" Baker and he raised to 35,000. Jack Ward made the call from the small blind, while Chris Bell opted to three-bet to 140,000 from the big blind. Baker folded immediately, while Ward thought long and hard before making the call.
Bel proceeded to move all in for 120,000 out of position even before seeing the flop. Ward checked so the bet stood and then made a reluctant call.
