Lamb Quartered

Ben Lamb raised from the button to 125,000 and Anders Taylor called from the small blind, making for the second battle in a row between these two.

The flop came down {K-Spades}{5-Spades}{4-Clubs} and Taylor fired 300,000. Lamb thought for a little bit and then got a count on Taylor's stack, which he had 330,000 remaining after he bet the 300,000. Lamb then raised to get all the money in. Taylor made the call.

Lamb held the {A-Spades}{9-Spades}{9-Hearts}{7-Spades} and Taylor the {A-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}.

The turn was the {A-Diamonds} and the river the {K-Clubs}, giving both players aces and kings with a nine for the high. Taylor made a low, 8-5-4-2-A and ended up getting three quarters of the pot. He's now up to 1.175 million while Lamb dropped to 555,000.

Taylor eventually called and Lamb tabled {a-Clubs}{9-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}. Pot for Lamb!
