Ma Scoops a Nice Pot
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
There were roughly 400,000 chips in the pot on A♣7♣9♥.
Roeland Peeks, who was under the gun, checked to Xiaoyao Ma on his direct left, and he fired out a bet of 50,000. Peeks decided to raise to 190,000, and Ma called.
The 6♥ on the turn saw Peeks fire out another bet of 450,000, which Ma called.
Both players checked on the Q♥ river, and Peeks tabled 8♥8♣, but could not beat Ma's hand as he tabled K♣9♣.
