Evans Flips, Crippled
Level 30
: 50,000/75,000, 15,000 ante
On Hand #101 of the day, another big pot broke out.
It began with Josh Evans opening to 180,000, and Jonathan Poche's answer was a three-bet shove for 1.775 million. Evans made the call, and the two men were close in chips as the cards were tabled.
Showdown
Evans:
Poche:
The flop was just what Poche was looking for, pairing up to take a commanding lead with two cards to come. The turn was a blank, and the river meant no change, either.
With Big Slick doing the work, Jonathan Poche has doubled up to 3.65 million. When the stacks were counted down, Evans was left with just 250,000 lonely chips with which to try and mount a comeback.
