Roberts Spikes the River to Bust Cherry in Massive Pot
Level 6
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Stephen Cherry raised to 1,200 in the cutoff and was called by Jonathan Roberts on the button and big blind Craig Rimmer.
The flop came K♥Q♥4♦ and Cherry bet 3,000. Both opponents called and the 8♠ fell on the turn.
Cherry bet another 6,000 and Roberts this time raised to 12,000. Rimmer got out of the way, but Cherry called to see the 6♦ river. Roberts then bet enough to put Cherry all in.
Cherry had around 20,000 remaining and tanked for a few minutes before calling with A♥A♣. Roberts, though, showed him Q♠6♠ for a rivered two pair to win the pot and send Cherry crashing to the rail.
