Champlin Spikes River in Big Pot
Level 37
: Blinds 5,000,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Both players limped to a flop of J♣6♣Q♥ and Spencer Champlin bet 1,000,000 with his gutshot and Tommy Zhang just called with his top pair of queens.
The turn came the 7♣ and the action went check-check to go the river 10♠. Zhang led for 2,100,000 and then Champlin raised to 7,000,000, sending him into the tank.
After thinking about it for some time, Zhang shook his head and made the call, but was shown the bad news and the huge pot was pushed over to Champlin.
