Payne Wins a Big One From Tamanini
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Ryan Tamanini limped in from the small blind and called when Joshua Payne made it 700,000 from the big blind.
Tamanini check-called bets of 525,000 and 1,350,000 on the flop and turn for the final board to read Q♣8♦3♣K♥6♣.
Tamanini checked again, and Payne fired a third barrel of 3,300,000 into the middle. Tamanini was perplexed by the river bet, and briefly left his seat before sitting back. He made the call to set up a 12,000,000 pot late on in the night.
Payne went runner-runner with his K♠6♠ to make two pair and Tamanini mucked his hand.
