Crawford Lays One Down

Nico Behling opened to 22,000 in the hijack and Claudia Crawford three-bet to 50,000 from the button. Roman Valerstein then four-bet to 105,000 from the big blind, prompting Behling to five-bet jam for about 395,000.

Crawford folded after a few moments, Valerstein folded immediately, and Crawford told the table "I knew I had the best hand!"

The ESPN cameras wanted to see the players' cards in the hole camera, and Crawford said, "I don't mind!", and showed {10-Hearts}{10-Spades} to everybody.
