Martin Heads Home

EPT London champion Michael Martin opened for 1,000 in mid position and big stack Robert Miller reraised to 3,200 in the cutoff. Back to Martin who made it 9,000, and then back to Miller, who went all in. Martin called all in for 16,000, and they were on their backs.

Martin: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Miller: a rather optimistic {q-Clubs}{9-Spades}

Board: {8-Clubs}{3-Spades}{9-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} ... wait for it ... {j-Spades}

Yuk. Miller rivered a straight, and was up to an impressive 155,000. The hapless Martin, however, is now at the rail.
