Matsuura Wins Sizeable Pot Against Sasaki
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
This hand was caught when the board read 10♠3♥8♣9♦8♥ in a pot that swelled to approximately 1,000,000 in chips in what was told to PokerNews to be a four-bet pot that saw a series of small bets on the flop and turn.
Seiji Sasaki opted to check the river, and after some considerable thought, Yuta Mutsuura also checked to send them to a showdown.
Sasaki showed Q♥10♥ for top pair and a busted straight draw. Matsuura rolled over his Q♣Q♦ to show an overpair and scoop the big pot.
