Tarango's Pot-Sized Turn Bet Gets Through
Level 1
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Billy Tarango raised from the hijack to 1,500. Roussos Koliakoudakis called from the button, as did Dylan Weisman from the small blind and Gruffudd Pugh-jones in the big blind.
The flop of J♦8♠5♠ brought some fireworks. Action checked to Koliakoudakis, and he bet 3,500. Weisman then check-raised to 12,000. Pugh-jones folded, but Tarango and Koliakoudakis both stuck around to see a turn.
The turn came the K♠, and Weisman checked. Tarango then said "Pot", and was informed by the dealer that it would be 42,500. Koliakoudakis quickly folded, and Weisman took some time before releasing his hand as well.
