Duek Finds the Best on the River
Level 29
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Evan Krentzman limped in from the small blind with A♣J♣5♦2♦ and Michael Duek raised the pot to 900,000 from the big blind. Krentzman called and the flop of 10♣7♣4♠ hit the felt.
Both players checked and the A♠ rolled off on the turn. Krentzman checked again and Duek slid out a pot-sized bet of 2,100,000. Krentzman called with top pair and the nut flush draw as the 8♦ landed on the river.
Both players instantly checked the river and Duek flipped over A♥8♥5♠3♠ for two pair to claim the pot.
