Level 24
: Blinds 0/0, 40,000 ante
K♦Q♣4♣3♦10♥
J♥5♠7♥10♦3♥
Robert Nehorayan bet 135,000 from middle position on the flop, and was called by Brian Smith and Jacob Baumgartner in the blinds.
On the turn, Smith checked and Baumgartner took over the betting lead, this time making a pot-sized bet of 660,000. Both of his opponents called.
When the river cards fell, it was Smith's turn to take the betting lead. He bet the pot, which was his last 1,980,000. Baumgartner folded fairly quickly, but Nehorayan went into the tank. He eventually folded, and Smith took down a huge pot without showdown.
