Anton Climbs, Khoury Falls

We came into this hand on the turn when there was already at least 300,000 in the pot.

The board read out {4-Spades}{10-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and Anton bet out 231,000 from middle position. Khoury called.

The river came {5-Diamonds} and Anton only bet out 125,000 this time, but Khoury called again.

Anton flipped over {a-Spades}{2-Diamonds} for a turned straight and Khoury could not believe it as he painfully mucked his hand and fell to only 600,000.

Anton is up around 1,700,000 after the hand and is now second in chips
