Ripnick Shows Winner
Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
There was already approximately 1,000,000 in the pot on a board that read 4♠Q♥K♦3♥ when this hand was picked up. John Ripnick checked it over from middle position to Joan Crespi in the hijack, who bet 850,000. Ripnick made the call.
Both players checked the 10♣ river. Ripnick showed K♠8♠ for a pair of kings, which was good as Crespi mucked his hand in response to yield the pot to Ripnick.
