Brown Bombs the River on Sarkis

Level 5 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Michael Brown

Four players saw the turn on a board of K?8?6?J? as action checked to Wael Sarkis who bet 8,000 from middle position. Ali Zebarjad folded his button, but Michael Brown raised to 25,000 in the small blind.

Dragos Trofimov got out of the way in the big blind and Sarkis called. The river was the 9? and Brown tossed in 125,000, easily covering Sarkis' remaining stack. Sarkis snap-folded.
