Tabb Inflicts a Massive Cooler on LaMontagne to Take the Chip Lead
Level 15
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Steven Tabb and Mike LaMontagne went to the turn on a board of A♠10♥8♠Q♥ when Tabb bet 100,000 from the button. LaMontagne then raised to 200,000 in the big blind, and Tabb moved all in.
LaMontagne let out a deep sigh as he quickly called for his last 500,000. "King-jack?" he asked Tabb, and Tabb indeed showed K♥J♣.
"How do you have king-jack?" LaMontagne added as he turned over J♦9♠ for a smaller straight. The river was the Q♠ and LaMontagne was sent to the rail, while Tabb raked in the massive pot to take over the chip lead.
