Vengrin Jams River to Win Huge Pot
Level 32
: Blinds 120,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Matt Vengrin limped on the button, and Bryce Yockey raised to 750,000 in the big blind. Vengrin tossed in the call.
The flop came J♥7♠6♠ and Yockey checked. Vengrin bet 1,000,000 and Yockey called.
Both players checked on the 9♥ river. Then the J♣ river saw fireworks. Yockey checked, and Vengrin bet pot, which was 3,700,000. Yockey responded with a pot-sized raise, to 14,500,000. Vengrin instantly moved all in, and Yockey was agonized. He eventually threw his hand in the muck, and Vengrin regained a commanding chip lead.
