Myers Wins Consecutive Pots at Showdown
Daniel Myers just won back-to-back pots at showdown, which boosted his stack to almost 1,500,000.
First, Myers raised from under the gun and got a call from Juan Pardo in the small blind.
They went to a flop of 8♣4♦A♥ where Pardo check-called a bet of 60,000 from Myers, then both checked the 9♣ turn.
A 4♠ dropped on the river and Pardo led out for 160,000, and Myers called. Pardo showed K♥Q♥ for just king-high, and Myers' A♦10♠ took the pot.
In the next hand, Jelle Moene opened from the hijack to 60,000 and Myers defended the big blind.
They both checked the 6♣2♥3♦ flop to the 5♠ turn where Myers led for 85,000, and Moene raised to 185,000. Myers called.
On the 8♣ river, both players checked and Myers showed a straight with K♣4♣ to win the pot.
