William Johnson Reaches 1.6 Million
Amin Karout has waited and waited for a hand. Then along comes a pair of aces and he tells himself that tight was right after all. That is until smashes his pair of aces to bits.
Karout is first to act and moves all-in; William Johnson makes the call in the small blind. Mathew Franklan also makes the call in the big blind and you start to believe that this board is going to get checked down on every street. In fact it does get checked down until the river. The board was showing when Johnson bet 40,000 and Frankland made the call.
Johnson showed his for the straight, Frankland mucked unseen cards and Karout couldn't believe his luck because his pair of aces, that improved to trips on the flop had been beaten.
Johnson moved up to 1.6 million and Karout moved out of the building
