Hand #207 - Rep Porter

Rep Porter Doubles Up
Rep Porter Doubles Up
Rep Porter has the button in seat 3 and he raises to 85,000. Nathan Templeton announces a reraise from the small blind. As required, he does indeed push out a stack of 245,000. With action now on Devin Porter, he announces "all in." Rep Porter seems unimpressed. It seems he has a real hand. Instead of carefully studying his opponents like he usually does, he is staring at his chips and the felt. It seems he doesn't so much need a read on his opponents, but on the situation itself. Porter continues to stare at his chips, then over to Templeton's then back to Devin Porter's all the while shuffling a stack of ten yellow chips. Porter finally calls. Templeton folds instantly. Devin's bet is roughly 1,300,000 and he has Rep barely covered. The players show:

Rep Porter: {10-Spades} {10-Clubs}
Devin Porter: {A-Clubs} {J-Clubs}

The flop comes {9-Spades} {3-Clubs} {3-Hearts}. The crowd is on it's feet as the turn falls the {5-Clubs}. The spectators grow even more excited and uneasy. The river card is the {3-Spades}. Devin Porter misses and his hand is second best. He is crippled with under 100,000 chips. Rep Porter doubles through Devin Porter.
