Katz Scoops a Monster
Level 20
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Cary Katz raised to 33,000 from late position only to face a three-bet from Richard Pyne on the button to 80,000. Katz went into the tank for a short while and then called.
The flop came 10♦K♦4♠, and Katz check-called Pyne's 50,000 continuation bet, and the dealer dropped the 7♣ as the turn card. Katz checked again, and now Pyne bet out for 125,000. Katz called.
Both players checked the 5♣ river, "King-six" said Pyne, and Katz turned over A♦K♥ for top-top and was pushed the monster pot.
