Drummond Turns Up the Heat and Gets Paid
Level 39
: Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante
Ferenc Deak completed his small blind, and Paulo Drummond responded with a pot-sized raise to 4,100,000. Deak made the call, and the two went to a flop of 7♥6♠K♠, which they both checked.
The 5♦ hit the turn, and Drummond seized the initiative with a bet of 8,400,000. Deak called once again, taking them to the 9♠ river.
Both players checked it down, and Drummond revealed K♣Q♦9♦8♣ for a king-high straight, enough to drag in the pot.
