Richards Doubles Through the Chip Leader
Level 29
: 50,000/100,000, 0 ante
Evangelos Kokkalis raised to 250,000 in the cutoff and John Richards three-bet to 850,000 from the small blind. Kokkilas four-bet shoved all in and Richards called the extra 370,000 to put himself at risk.
Evangelos Kokkalis: 
John Richards: 
The flop fell 
to give Richards trip sevens and a stranglehold on the hand. The 
on the turn changed nothing and Kokkilas was drawing to just two outs. The river was the 
to give Richards quads and a full double up.
