Estes Fills Up to Send One Out
Level 1
Pot-Limit Omaha
Heads-up on a board of 2♣9♣3♠8♥, Michael Estes potted to 8,200 from the hijack and was called by an early-position opponent.
The river came the 3♥ and action checked to Estes, who again announced pot, this time to 24,600. His opponent tanked for about a minute before calling all in for less.
Estes turned over A♣9♦9♥K♠ for the flopped set that turned into a full house on the river and his opponent briefly flashed his cards before wishing the table luck and heading for an early exit.
"Did he have a three there," tablemate Frankie O'Dell asked.
"I didn't see it," Estes replied as he stacked up the massive pot.
"I guess a three could be a call there. I wasn't paying attention," O'Dell added.
