Wakil Inflicts a Massive Cooler on May to Cross a Million
Level 17
: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Three-handed on a board of K♥4♠K♣Q♣, Bastien May bet 30,000 from under the gun and Jamil Wakil called on the button, while small blind Aaron Olechnowicz got out of the way.
The river was the 8♣ and May bet 110,000. Wakil then moved all in and May snap-called for around 380,000.
Wakil turned over K♦8♦ for a rivered full house and May tossed Q♠Q♥ into the muck for a beaten full house as Wakil raked in the massive pot, becoming the first player to cross the 1,000,000 chip milestone.
