Bolton Bombs the River
Level 13
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Action folded around to the blinds, where Armon van Wijk called from the small blind and Ken Bolton checked his option in the big blind.
Bolton called a 6,000 bet from van Wijk on the K♦10♦J♣ flop and then bet 10,000 after being checked to on the J♠ turn. Van Wijk called.
The 8♥ completed the board and van Wijk checked a final time. Bolton pulled 76,500 from his stack and placed it into the middle for a massive overbet.
Van Wijk looked like he was seriously considering calling, but eventually thought better of it and laid his hand down.
"I didn't have a pair," Van Wijk said.
"Neither did I!" Bolton replied.
