River Rat
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Four players limped the pot: Michael Young in middle position, Eric Uhl in late position, Yucel Eminoglu in the cutoff and Julius Roque on the button. The big blind, Ronald Slucker, decided to check his option.
They saw a flop of 7♥J♣K♦. When action checked to him, Uhl bet 10,000, pushing everyone out of the pot except Young, who called. The turn 6♦ fell, and Uhl bet another 20,000 after another check. Young stayed on again.
Both players checked the 7♦ river. Young showed K♠3♠ evoking Uhl to call him, "River Rat!" as he turned over K♣10♦ for a split pot.
