Nagy Strikes Back
Level 27
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
After winning a few small pots off of Patrick Kennedy without showdown, Gergo Nagy limped in from the button and Kennedy checked from the big blind.
Both players checked the 5♦4♠2♠ flop leading to the 7♥ turn. Kennedy bet 125,000 and Nagy raised to 350,000. Kennedy made the call.
On the 9♦ river Kennedy checked and Nagy bet 900,000. Kennedy, with a pained expression on his face, made the call and showed 8♣5♣5♠2♥ for a set of fives. Nagy had him beat with J♦9♣8♠6♦ for a straight to take down a massive pot and reclaim the chip lead from Kennedy.
