Yanovski Takes Down Massive Pot Without Showdown
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Action was picked up on the river with the board reading 9♣10♥A♥5♠A♦ and 440,000 chips in the middle. Leonid Yanovski had placed a bet of 110,000 sending his opponent in late position deep into the tank.
After about a minute of deliberation the late-position player folded, awarding Yanovski a huge pot that puts him above the one million chip mark.
Players at the table said that there was a pot-sized three-bet preflop, and a 100,000 flop bet that ballooned the pot leading into the river.
