Taveras Flops the Joint
Level 33
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Eric Kotsines raised to 1,600,000 in the hijack and Omar Taveras called in the small blind, as did MG in the big blind.
All three players checked to the river on a board of K♦10♠J♣3♠6♦. Taveras then led out for 3,000,000, and only Kotsines called.
"I needed somebody to take a stab," Taveras said as he turned over A♠Q♣ for the flopped nut straight, and Kotsines mucked.
