Carney Scoops a Massive Pot

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Matthew Sasko raised from early position to 2,500, John Oneal called from the cutoff, and Paul Carney flat called from the big blind. The dealer flopped out K42 and Sasko placed the continuation bet of 5,700 after Carney checked. Oneal got out of the way, and Carney called.

Both players checked the turn 5 and on the river 6, Carney seized the opportunity to place a big bet of 27,000. Sasko thought for a few minutes and made the call. Carney showed A3 for the straight, and Sasko mucked.
