Johnson Takes a Big Pot

Travis Johnson
Travis Johnson
When Karp limped in from the button, Johnson checked his option and we saw a flop of {Q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{J-Spades}.

Johnson checked, Karp bet 150,000, and Johnson raised to 500,000. Karp called and the came {9-Spades}. Johnson led for 1 million and Karp called again. With the {10-Diamonds} on the river, Johnson shoved and Karp tanked before finally releasing his hand.

When Johnson took the pot, Karp had just 2,650,000 left behind.
