Innocent Hand Turns Violent
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
The action folded around to Gregory Rankich and Neel Murthy in the blinds who just limped in. The flop came 9♥7♠5♦ and Rankich check-called a bet from Murthy.
The turn was the 10♦ and Rankich checked again. Murthy sized up with a bet of 32,000 and Rankich check-raised all in for 287,000. Murthy asked for a count and then dipped into the tank. Nearly five minutes had passed and Murthy finally relinquished his cards to the muck. Rankich offered a favor and showed his J♣8♠ for the nuts as he raked in the pot.
