Viox Strikes Back

Level 29 : 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante

With the {5-Spades} up, Chris Viox was the bring-in, and he called the completion from Mike Sexton and the {6-Spades}.

Viox: (x-x) / {5-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Sexton: (x-x) / {6-Spades}{j-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

On fourth street, Sexton bet his lead, and Viox called. When the pair came on fifth, Sexton bet it again, and Viox was right there with another call. On sixth, Sexton slowed down with a check, and Viox fired the big bet of 120,000. His bet sent Sexton deep into the tank, shaking his head and turning the gears. He double-checked his down cards, then counted down what's left of his stack. It's about 360,000, and Sexton eventually decided this wasn't the spot, tucking them under and laying them down.

Viox is in control now, reducing Sexton to just a couple bets.
