Martini Scoops Big Five-Way Pot to Take the Lead
Level 28
: 25,000/50,000, 0 ante
Rafael Concepcion limped in first to act and Mack Lee raised from one seat over. Kate Hoang called on the button, as did William Kopp, and Julien Martini came along for the ride on the big blind. Concepcion also called and five players headed to the flop. Action checked to Lee and he bet, all four opponents called!
After the turn, again all players checked to Lee, who bet and picked up four callers once more. The river was checked through and Hoang was first to show. Kopp announced a king out of turn but didn't table his cards yet. Hoang then showed for a busted nut low draw and Kopp flashed his cards, but mucked as soon as Martini showed for trips sixes.
That ended up scooping the entire pot to vault the Frenchman into the lead.
