Le and Patry collide in 250k pot

[user38334]

In a battle of the blinds, Dinh Le raises to 23,000 from the SB and is called by Guillaume Patry in the BB. The flop comes {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

{4-Hearts}

{3-Clubs}

and both players check. The turn card is the {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

and Le bets out 45,000. Patry goes into the tank for a minute before making the call. The river card is the {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

. Le counts his chips, sighs, peeks at his cards and counts his chips again. He grabs a stack of yellow 5,000 chips and splashes them across the betting line. Patry asks for a count, and it turns out to be 80,000. He counts it out and stares at Le. He eventually calls and Le opens {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{7-Spades}

for a rivered straight. Patry shows the {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

and mucks in disgust.
