Hebert's Million-Chip Bet Gets Paid Off
Level 31
: 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Soeph Hebert was under the gun and opened for 125,000, which Luke Graham called from the hijack. Rogen Chhabra and Daniel Schmiech called from the small and big blinds respectively, and the flop came down 
.
Chhabra was first to act and led out for 225,000 and only Hebert called, leading to the 
turn. Chhabra proceeded to check-call a bet of 325,000 and then checked the 
river. Hebert used two hands to spike in two towers of blue T25,000 chips for a bet of 1 million, and after thinking for about 30 seconds, Chhabra whispered, "Call."
Hebert rolled over the 
for fours full of deuces, and Chhabra sent his cards to the muck unseen as he relinquished the chip lead.
