Eskes Pays Off Runcan's Overbet
Level 29
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Anton Bergstrom raised to 200,000 with A♥J♦ from under the gun with Tjenno Eskes calling from the small blind and Paul Runcan defending out of the big blind.
The 7♣6♠K♦ flop checked through for the 7♠ to fall on the turn. Runcan led out for 350,000, which only Eskes called.
The 6♦ came on the river and Runcan fired out an overbet of 1,900,000. Eskes burned through a few of his time bank cards before he carved out the call.
Runcan flipped over the winner with 7♦5♣ for trip sevens, as Eskes was forced to muck his K♠Q♥ and send a large portion of his stack over to Runcan.
