Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Three players went to the turn on a board of 10♥J♥K♦8♦ when Nick Raio bet 2,600 from early position. The big blind called, as did another opponent under the gun.
The river was the 10♠ and the big blind bet 13,500. The under-the-gun player took a minute before calling, while Raio also went into the tank until also putting in the chips to call.
"I missed," the big blind said as he turned over 9♥8♥, while Raio had A♥Q♦ for a flopped straight to win the big pot.
"I thought we were chopping. Showed up an hour late, first hand I played," Raio said.
