Hendrix the Hero
On a heads-up turn between Adam Hendrix and Michael Arellano, a large pot was brewing as there were already 125,000 chips in the middle when Arellano bet 75,000 on the turn 5?4?2?J?. After some thought, Hendrix made the call and the duo continued to the river K?.
Arellano then cut out a bet of 150,000 and the action was on Hendrix once again, who went deep into the tank to think about this one, even scratched his head once or twice.
After about a minute or so, he flicked in the call and heard those sweet sweet words from Arellano, "You're good," as he tabled Q?8? for just queen-high. Hendrix then turned over his holding of 8?5?, a whopping pair of fives, to take down the monster pot.
This win has boosted him well over the million mark as he is currently sitting at 1,250,000.
