Nigh Wins a Big Pot
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Eric Yanovsky raised in middle position to 20,000 and the small blind Peter Nigh and the big blind Clifford Pappas both called.
The flop was A?8?9? and Yanovsky bet 25,000 and both blinds called.
The turn brought the 9? and everyone checked.
On the river A? Yanovsky continued the aggression and bet 95,000 and both blinds called again. Nigh showed A?4? for Aces-full, Pappas showed 10x9x for a lower nines-full, and Yanovsky mucked. This left Nigh with a nice pot.
