Huge Pot as Balleweg Finds Fortunate River
Level 9
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
On a 
flop with about 14,000 in the pot, the middle position player bet 6,000, the cutoff raised to 12,000, and Jim Balleweg jammed for 25,100. The middle position player called, and the cutoff called off their remaining 6,000 or so chips as hands were revealed.

Middle Position: 
Jim Balleweg: 
Balleweg flopped middle pair and a flush draw and was calling for a club. The 
didn't help him, but the 
spiked the river to complete the flush.
"Yes!" Balleweg excitedly said, as the river kept his team alive and gave them the sizable pot.
