Johnston Check-Raises in Three-Bet Pot
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 18,000 ante
Andy Hwang raised to 25,000 in the hijack and Michael Johnston called in the cutoff. Antonio Seremet then made it 125,000 to go on the button, which only Johnston called.
Johnston drew one before Seremet stood pat. Johnston then checked, Seremet bet 85,000 and Johnston pushed all in for roughly 200,000 chips.
Seremet snap called and tabled 8x7x6x4x3x for an eight-low, but Johnston had better as he turned over 7x5x4x3x2x for a wheel, doubling him up in a huge pot.
Meanwhile, David "ODB" Baker had accumulated a seven-figure stack at this table.
