Binder Reaches a Billion
Level 38
: Blinds 5,000,000/10,000,000, 10,000,000 ante
Bernhard Binder raised to 33,000,000 in the small blind with A♦K♦ and Jean-Noel Thorel called in the big blind with 9♣8♣.
Binder checked on the flop of 10♦6♣Q♦ and Thorel bet 25,000,000. Binder called. Binder checked again on the 9♥ turn and Thorel bet 50,000,000. Binder called.
Binder then led out after making the nut straight on the J♣ river and Thorel called before seeing the bad news.
