Big Stacks Tangle in Massive Pot
Level 23
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Andrew Kershaw limped in from the hijack, and when it folded to the small blind Keith Crowder, he called as well. Then the big blind Kevin Roche raised to 155,000, before Kershaw three-bet to 500,000. Crowder folded, and Roche called to see a flop.
The flop came A?Q?4? and Roche check-called a bet of 250,000 from Kershaw.
Both players checked after the J? on the turn.
The river was the A? and Roche led out for a bet of 600,000. Kershaw then sat in the tank for several minutes, before putting in a chip to make the call, and turned over K?K?. But Roche had best hand when he tabled A?10? for trip aces, to talk the pot worth over 2,700,000.
