Martin Finds A King on the River, Brings Field Closer to Bagging for the Night
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Action folded to the button who put in a raise to 17,000 only to see the small blind three-bet jam for 34,000 total. Mark Martin called from the big blind as did the button to send one all-in player and two active players to a flop of Q♠8♦9♣.
Broth Martin and the button checked through to the 7♠ turn.
Action checked through again to bring the K♥ out on the river.
Action checked a third time to bring all three players to a showdown with the all-in player turning up the A♣6♣ while the button showed Q♦J♦, neither of which were good enough to beat the K♣J♥ of Martin who collected the pot as his all-in opponent stood to make his exit from the tournament area.
