Glenn Martinez has just been the beneficiary of a big cooler of a knockout pot.
It began with a player in middle position opening to 7,500, and Martinez defended his big blind to see a heads-up flop. The dealer spread out 
, and Martinez check-raised from 11,000 to 30,000. The bettor reraised all in for 106,000 total, and Martinez made the quick call with his covering stack.
"Set over set again?!" the bettor lamented as he saw Martinez's 
. He tabled his inferior 
, and the turn added insult to his injury. The 
dropped to quad Martinez, and the river 
has ushered another player out the door.
With that big pot, Martinez is all the way up to 360,000 and in command of the biggest stack in the room.
