Building a Mountt-ain of Chips

In a limped pot, four players took a flop of {3-Hearts}{5-Spades}{J-Hearts} where Danny Mountt fired out 2,800 from the hijack position. Matthew Roberts then bumped it up to 6,000 from the button, forcing the blinds to fold as Mountt made the call.

The turn was a dangerous looking {A-Hearts} and Mountt led at the pot again, this time for 6,400. Roberts quickly called and the {K-Hearts} peeled off on the river.

Mountt quickly moved all in as Roberts sighed and folded {J-Spades}{J-Clubs} face up! Without a heart in his hand Roberts was forced to release, as Mountt is now behind 90,000.
