Boatman Hits the Nuts on the River
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Alexander Tkatschew had jammed the first hand of the new feature table to steal the blinds. He then raised to 50,000 with the 7?7? and Barny Boatman called with the A?J? in the big blind.
That led them to the K?6?3? flop on which Boatman checked, Tkatschew bet 40,000 and Boatman called. The Q? turn kept Tkatschew ahead but Boatman now had a gutshot, which he opted to check for Tkatschew to check back.
Boatman made broadway with the 10? river and he bet 125,000, but received no call.
