Taylor and Koon Scoop Pots
Level 14
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Thomas Taylor raised to 20,000 in early position and was called by Ben Lamb on his left and Jason Koon in the big blind. The flop came 6♦4♣2♣ and Koon led out with a bet of 35,000. Taylor raised the pot to 180,000 which forced Lamb to quickly fold and Koon eventually followed suit.
The next hand, Sean Troha opened to 35,000 from the cutoff and Koon three-bet to 115,000 in the small blind. Troha moved all in for around 175,000 and Koon quickly called.
Sean Troha: A♣K♥K♦Q♣
Jason Koon: A♠A♦10♣8♥
The board ran out J♠J♥6♣5♠Q♦ and Koon's pocket aces were enough to eliminate Troha.
