Hand #17: Koroknai Loses First Pot He Plays

Level 34 : 150,000/300,000, 40,000 ante

Jesse Sylvia had the button on this hand. Action folded to Jeremy Ausmus in middle position, and he raised to 625,000. Andras Koroknai called out of the big blind for the first pot he's played.

The flop came down {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}, and Koroknai checked. Ausmus bet 700,000, and Koroknai made the call.

On the turn, the {7-Clubs} landed. The Hungarian checked again, and Ausmus opted to check behind this time and give a free card.

The river completed the board with the {J-Spades}, and Koroknai checked. Ausmus fired 1.6 million. Koroknai folded, and Ausmus' cheering section let out a huge roar as he scooped in the pot.
