Wilburn Keeps Climbing
Level 20
: 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Anthony Potis opened to 50,000 in the cutoff, finding calls from Richard Wilburn in the small blind and Rob Gardner in the big blind.
All three players checked the K♠5♣J♦ flop, and the dealer flipped over the 8♣ turn. Wilburn led out for 65,000, resulting in a fold from Gardner.
Potis called to the 4♦ river, and Wilburn counted out another lead. This time, the bet was 120,000. Potis took some time before sliding his cards into the much, and Wilburn increased his chip lead.
