The pot had already swelled to over 110,000 when this hand was picked up on the turn of a board that read 10♠8♦Q♥7♠.
Greg Raymer bet 35,000 before Ronald Sewell made it 70,000 in response. Raymer put in his final 89,500 to go all in. Sewell made the call to put Raymer at risk.
Greg Raymer: 10♥10♦
Ronald Sewell: A♣Q♣
