Butcher Carves a Chunk Out of Opponent's Stack
An early position player raised to 60,000 and got called by the cutoff and William Butcher in the big blind leading to a 6?10?A? flop.
The early position player continued with a bet of 85,000 with both the cutoff and Butcher calling to see the Q? turn.
Both Butcher and the early position player checked over to the cutoff who tossed out a bet of 375,000. Butcher was the only player who called, sending both remaining players to the 7? river.
Butcher led for the first time of the hand and did so in a big way by jamming into his opponent who entered the tank.
With well over 1,500,000 in the pot, the late position player contemplated his action for a few minutes before ultimately folding the AxQx face up. Butcher slid his cards into the muck face down and collected a massive pot.
