Vazquez Spikes the River to Take a Massive Pot and the Chip Lead
Luis Vazquez just eliminated another player after a massive pot that catapulted him to the top of the chip counts, and the table filled in the details.
A player raised in early position and Vazquez called in middle position, as did the small blind. The flop came K♦10♦8♣ and Vazquez bet 35,000. The small blind raised to 120,000, Vazquez reraised to 260,000, and the small blind called.
The turn was the Q♣, and Vazquez bet another 340,000. His opponent tanked for several minutes, and Vazquez called the clock. The small blind eventually moved all in for around 1,000,000, and Vazquez called with 9♦7♦ for straight and flush draws.
His opponent had K♣10♣ for two pair and his own flush draw, but the river was the A♦ as Vazquez completed his draw to win the pot and climb past 4,000,000.
