Robinson Gets Richer

Nelson Robinson has storm away to become the far-and-away chip leader, managing to take down a big pot against Patrick Karchamroon.

The hand began when Karschamroon opened up the pot to 42,000. Robinson called out of the big blind and a {10-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{9-Spades} flop was dealt. Karschamroon check-called a bet of 51,000 here and the {9-Clubs} was dealt on the turn. This time Robinson would lead for 104,000 and after plenty of time thinking, Karschamroon called.

The {4-Hearts} on the river would see Nelson only take a moment to bet 200,000. Karschamroon then thought long and hard for almost two minutes. Eventually he opted to fold, sending the pot to Robinson.
