Slaght Gets Three-Quarters of Huge Pot; Joins Chip Leaders
Level 24
Big O
A commotion was noticed at table 145 as a massive cooler has sent William Slaght toward the chip lead, while leaving Igor Zektser short.
On a flop, pot-sized bets were exchanged and an over one million chip pot was in progress, with Slaght all in and in rough shape.
William Slaght:
Igor Zektser:
Slaght had flopped trip fours, but Zektser had flopped threes full of fours.
The turn gave Slaght half the pot with his ace-seven low, but then he got the best possible card to counterfeit that low in the on the river to give him a better full house than Zektser, with each player sharing the low.
