The Croc Rocks Sawyers

Level 9 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

Nathan Sawyers opened with a raise before Billy Argyros three-bet to what looked like 20,000 before the flop from the big blind. Action was back on Sawyers who called in position.

The flop came down {9-Spades}{6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} and Argyros led out, making it 15,000. Sawyers thought for a few moments before raising and making it 35,000. Back on Argyros and he didn't take long to move all in for around 100,000 total.

"I guess you have a big pair," Sawyers said before folding. "I had a big hand too."

Argyros took down the pot and chipped up to around 150,000 while Sawyers slipped to around 170,000.
