Usterud Takes From Threadgill
Level 19
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Stian Usterud limped in from under the gun and then called a raise to 135,000 by Barrett Threadgill on the button. The J♠8♥8♦ flop was checked by both players before Usterud bet the 4♥ turn for 150,000 and the 7♣ river for another 500,000.
Threadgill was a non-believer and called with a single chip but was left with visible frustration when his opponent rolled over the J♦10♥8♠7♥ for a flopped full house.
At almost the same time one table over, Benjamin Juhasz sent Philip Marsico to the rail with half of the players at the table wishing to slow down the action on the all-in showdowns, while another wanted to "just rip that shit".
