Keating Loses a Big One to Zaks
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
The pot stood at approximately 200,000 with two players looking at a full board of 7♠Q♥7♣2♥Q♣.
Kostya Zaks, in the hijack, bet out 100,000. Alex Keating thought for some time, clearly frustrated by the decision he faced.
After some time in the tank, Keating slid a stack of blues into the Zaks' stack as if they were a gift, also signifying a call. Zaks tabled J♦J♥, which was good enough to win this pot.
