Lawson Keeps Climbing
Level 24
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Jon Lawson raised to 155,000 on the button and Mike Estes defended in the big blind.
The flop of 6♦6♠6♣ went check-check, bringing the 5♦ turn. Estes check-called a bet of 125,000 from Estes and the 8♥ landed on the river.
Estes checked again and Lawson tossed out a bet of 300,000. Estes then made it 800,000 to go, prompting Lawson to think for a moment before making the call.
"King-high," said Estes as Lawson turned over K♣K♦ for a full house to take down the pot.
