Barbero Rivers the Nuts and Bets Big
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Igor Kurganov raised to 1,500 on the button and Nacho Barbero defended from the big blind. The flop came 
and both players checked to the 
on the turn and the 
on the river.
Barbero led out with a large bet of 6,600 and Kurganov looked him up. Barbero whipped over 
for the nut straight and Kurganov conceded.
"That's why you bet so big," Kurganov nodded in approval after the hand.
