DeMaci Bets Big and Wins

We caught this hand on the turn with approximately 10,000 in the pot and a board of {4-Spades}{J-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{3-Hearts}.

Peter Rho led out for 8,000 from middle position and Chris DeMaci made the call from the cutoff. Rho checked when the river brought the {A-Spades} and DeMaci over-bet the pot, pushing 45,000 into the middle. Rho didn't bite and laid down his hand.

The table broke at the end of the hand, and DeMaci racked up 80,000 in chips before moving to his new seat.
