Michael Marder

After limping into the pot from UTG+2, Michael Marder was faced with a raise to 2,500 and two calls. He elected to remain in the hand, and Table 45 was 4-handed to the flop.

Flop: 8♠ 4♠ 7♣

The first three players checked, allowing the hijack seat to bet 3,500. UTG and Marder made the call, but the pre-flop raiser folded from UTG+3.

Turn: 7♥

All three players checked.

River: 7♦

Unafraid (or perhaps excited) by the third seven on the board, Marder dropped one grey 5,000 chip into the pot of 22,500. Somewhat surprisingly, it was enough to force the other two players to fold, allowing Marder to continue to increase his already well-above average stack without a showdown.
