Berry Wins Huge Pot With Straight Flush
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Keith McKuin raised preflop from under the gun and was three-bet by Hector Berry in the seat next to him. McKuin called to create a pot of 150,000 chips and see the flop of Q?J?5?.
McKuin checked, Berry continued for 55,000 chips, and McKuin called. Both players checked on the 10? turn before the 9? river completed the board.
McKuin checked for a third time, but Berry piled in a massive bet of 325,000 chips. McKuin spent some minutes in the tank before calling off about half his stack.
Berry opened up K?Q? for a rivered straight flush, sending McKuin's cards into the muck.
