Turner Snaps Off Turker, Breaks the Three Million Mark

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Jon "PearlJammer" Turner raised to 57,000 out of the small blind in a blind vs. blind situation and Sadan Turker reraised to 150,000. Turner called.

The flop came {K-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and Turner checked, prompting a bet (we missed the exact size) from Turker. Turner flatted.

Both players checked when the {A-Diamonds} came on the turn and Turner checked a third time when the {6-Spades} filled the river. Turker responded by making it 277,000 to go. Turner fell deep into the tank. He thought for about four minutes before tossing in a call and posturing himself as if he were ready to muck the second he found out he was second best. However, Turker rapped the table and Turner showed the {K-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. Turker mucked his hand.

Turner is now up to 3,010,000 while Turker has slipped to 1,960,000.
