Welko Hits a "Player of the Year River"

Level 18 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Craig Welko

Quintin Sargent raised to 32,000 on the button, Craig Welko moved all in for 240,000 in the small blind, and Sargent called.

Craig Welko: 4♠4♣ All in
Quintin Sargent: 10♠10♦

Welko found himself crushed by Sargent's tens, and the board came 9♦3♦5♣9♠ to leave the reigning Player of the Year on the cusp of elimination. The river, though, brought the 4♥ to give Welko a full house.

"Well played. That's a Player of the Year river," Mike Hurley told Welko.
