Roberts Running Away From the Field
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Leslie Kearney raised to 5,500 under the gun, Jonathan Roberts three-bet to 16,000 in the small blind, and Kearney called.
The flop came A?5?3? and Roberts continued for 12,000. Kearney called and the K? fell on the turn. Roberts then bet 27,000 and Kearney called.
The 5? fell on the river and Roberts tossed out enough to put Kearney all in. Kearney quickly called for his last 70,000 with A?Q?, but Roberts showed Q?5? for rivered trips to win the massive pot and send Kearney to the rail.
"You probably weren't going to pass, anyway. I'm surprised it wasn't a spade," Kearney told him on his way to the exit.
Zhicheng Miao recently fired his fifth bullet of the day.
