Level 23
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Big O
Heads-up on a board of 2♣J♣8♠3♠, Sterling Savill bet 46,000 from the hijack and Alex Livingston called in the cutoff.
The river came the 4♦ and Savill slowed down and checked. Livingston now fired out a bet of 90,000.
"You were so dead on the turn. Just smacked it," Savill told Livingston as he tanked for several minutes. The dealer then had to remind the two players not to discuss the hand with action pending.
"I didn't start it," Livingston replied. Savill then mucked, showing Livingston his A♣4♠. Livingston returned his cards face down and took the pot.
