Some Like it Hot

There’s a raise from early position from Switzerland’s Besim Hot, a raise to 350. To his immediate left is Marko Serdarusic and he calls. The action then passes around to Ryan O’Donnell in the small blind and he makes it a trio of players who are active in the hand.

The [8c][7s][4c] flop gets checked around and O’Donnell checks the arrival of the [Js] on the turn. Hot now bets 1,300 into his opponents and both quickly fold

Hot may not be a name you are familiar with, but if you ever play high stakes tournaments in Rozvadov in the Czech Republic then he will be all too familiar. In the past year, Hot has three wins, a second and a third place finish in tournaments ranging from €10,000 to €25,000. By all accounts he plays a very loose-aggressive style so we will keep an eye out for him today.
