No Easy Rides in Level One

The blinds may be small currently, but they're being fought over viciously right from the start. While no one's going to be tearing away in the first hour, some are adding some early chips to their stacks with aplomb. Like an extremely youthful looking, yet clearly fairly experienced player, who just made a standard raise to 150 preflop and was called by everyone in position (this amounted to four, including Johnny Lodden).

The flop came down 2♥ 9♣ A♠

As out of position as one can be, the preflop raiser bet out (either 200 or 300 - I couldn't hear but there was definitely a 500 chip thrown in with the request of the dealer for some kind of change). It folded round to the cutoff, who calmly raised to 650. Back to young Raiser, who considered briefly before repopping him - this time to 1,800; he was rewarded with a near instafold.
