Hand #141-- Cody Slaubaugh

[user37786]

Hougaard raised to 130,000 and Slaubaugh reraised an additional 290,000. Jesper made the call.

The flop came {7-Diamonds}

and Cody bet 505,000. Jesper made the call.

The turn brought the {Q-Clubs}

. Cody checked, Jesper checked.

The river was the {4-Hearts}

. Cody checked, and again Hougaard asked how much Slaubaugh had left. Jesper looked at his cards, frowned, then bet 650,000. Cody peered out from over his sunglasses, grabbed a handful of chips, and made the call.

As soon as Cody said "call" Jesper mucked his cards. We eventually saw that Slaubaugh had A-10 and that was good enough to make the call and take another massive pot.

The heads up match has been all Cody Slaubaugh.
