Hand #91 - Nathan Templeton

Nathan Templeton
Nathan Templeton
John Conkright has the button in seat 2. Action folds to Rep Porter in the small blind and he raises to 60,000. Nathan Templeton makes the call and they take a flop.

The flop comes {A-Clubs} {9-Clubs} {9-Spades}. Porter leads out for 75,000. Templeton sits reactionless with his chin resting on his left hand for a good 30 seconds. He eventually exhales and makes the call.

The {4-Clubs} hits the turn and Porter keeps an eye on his opponent, not checking to see what actually hit the turn for a few seconds. Porter taps the felt to let his opponent do the betting, which he does. Templeton pushes out 150,000. Porter only takes his eyes off of Templeton to double check his hole cards. He eventually folds, much to the delight of Templeton's supporters who applaud. Nathan Templeton wins the pot.
