"The Rich Get Richer"; Murphy Smacks the River For Double Knockout
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
A player in middle position moved all in for 20,000, the hijack reshoved for 30,000, and Jonathon Murphy put both opponents at risk in early position.
Middle-Position: A♥10♥
Hijack: J♠J♦
Jonathon Murphy: A♠K♦
The hijack remained in the lead with his jacks as the board came 5♦5♠Q♠7♥, but Murphy spiked the K♣ on the river to win the pot and send both opponents to the rail.
"Sorry guys," he said.
"The rich get richer," tablemate Doug Simon added as Murphy moved up past 400,000.
