Racener Gets Maximum Value
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Picking up the action on the river, John Racener on the button was involved in a hand with Nikita Luther from middle position. With the board reading 8♠3♦2♣9♦K♥ Luther checked and Racener, after a moments hesitation, moved all in for 1,960,000, about half the pot. That sent Luther deep into the tank as she contemplated a call. After several minutes, she did commit calling chips holding A♣8♣ but fell to Racener's flopped set with 8♥8♦ to take a big hit to her stack while handing Racener a late double.
