Lee Wilson Wins a Monster Pot

Lee Wilson is faced with a bet of 5,000 from Timothy Miles on a board of {6-Spades}{5-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{10-Hearts}. Wilson thinks for a minute before announcing, "Raise." Wilson puts his call of 5,000 in the middle and then decides to raise 10,000 more.

With the pressure back on Miles, he goes into the tank for a few minutes. After a minute more of deliberation, Miles moves all in and Wilson beats him into the pot.

Miles shows {A-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} and Wilson shows {K-Spades}{Q-Clubs}. The dealer burns and reveals the {J-Spades} for the river card, giving Wilson a straight and the winning hand.

The pot was over 65,000 in chips and Wilson is now sitting with a big stack.
