Livingston Raises Big on the River
Level 12
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
There was already around 85,000 in the pot as Mats Nylander and Alex Livingston went to the river on a board of A♦8♣4♣5♦9♠.
Nylander then bet 55,000 from the button before Livingston raised to 160,000 in the hijack. Nylander burned through several time banks as he tanked for a few minutes.
He eventually called and Livingston turned over 9♥7♥6♣3♣ for a straight. Nylander held onto his cards and leaned over the table taking a long look at the board before mucking.
