Turner Takes it on River

No-Limit Hold'em

Phil Hellmuth opened to 12,000 from under the gun, receiving calls from Jon "PearlJammer" Turner (cutoff) and Alexandre Luneau (small blind). The dealer fanned {8-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{7-Spades}, all three players checked, and the turn brought the {5-Clubs}. Luneau led for 27,000, and received two calls.

The river was the {9-Hearts}, and the action checked to Turner who fired 42,000. Both players folded, and Turner raked in the pot.
