Big Turn Sends a Triple to Miller

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

Tad Macaraeg opened to 1,600 from middle position and Joe Rogers called in the hijack. Scott Miller pushed from the small blind, totaling 7,600 and Simon Webster called in the big blind.

Macaraeg folded and Rogers called to see the {q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} flop. Both players checked through to the {a-Clubs} turn where webster fired in 13,000. Rogers quickly folded and Webster turned over {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} for a flopped set of dimes.

Miller showed the goods, tabling a hand-leading straight with {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}. "Come on deuce!" he said while looking to fade Webster's outs. A duck didn't fall but the {j-Diamonds} river was of no harm and he pulled in the pot with his broadway.
