The Croc Takes a Bite

[user66118]

A player in early position raises the pot, and Billy "The Croc" Argyros reraises, and the original raiser is the only caller.

The two players see the flop come out {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{A-Spades}

. Action is checked to The Croc, and he bets, only to get check-raised. He calls the additional 500.

The turn is the {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

. The bet is 1,000 to Argyros and he calls. The river is the {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

, and both players check.

The Croc shows down the winning hand: {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{8-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

, and to the delight of Aussies everywhere, he has chipped back up to 9,500.
