Hamilton Raises the River
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Ian Hamilton raised to 20,000 from middle position and was called by Jordi Romero to his left. Hamilton checked the 
flop and Romero slid out a bet of 35,000.
Hamilton then check-raised to 125,000 and was called to see the 
turn before leading out for 175,000 chips. Romero called and fired 85,000 on the river 
before Hamilton check-raised to 500,000.
Romero instantly slid two time cards to the dealer as he pondered his decision, eventually using a third before making the fold. Hamilton slid his cards forward and took down a sizeable pot.
