Cardinal Campbell Picks up a Nice Pot Before Bagging
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
With only three hands left to play in Day 1, NFL star Calais Campbell checked to Frank Lagodich on a fully diamond board of 3♦A♦9♦Q♦ before calling his bet of 36,000 into a pot of 45,000.
The dealer paired the board on the 3♥ river, and action went check-check. Despite being the last aggressor, Lagodich was reluctant to show his cards, letting Campbell know he was best, and he showed J♣10♦ for the second nut flush, before scooping in the pot, allowing his stack to grow to over four starting stacks as he headed into the final two hands before bagging up.
