Raymer Rivers Broadway to Bust Derego
Level 27
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Greg Raymer raised from early position and William Derego got his stack of around 500,000 into the middle from the cutoff. Raymer quickly called.
William Derego: A♣8♣
Greg Raymer: A♠K♦
Derego was dominated by Raymer's ace-king, but that changed when he spiked an eight on the 8♥3♥Q♥ flop.
Raymer picked up a straight draw when the 10♥ hit the turn, and he got there after the J♠ completed the board to give him Broadway.
Derego was sent to the rail, and Raymer received a round of applause from a few fans on the rail as he climbed to almost three million chips.
