Willerson Scoops Huge Pot

Vladimir Mefodichev had the button. The two players limped before the flop and saw {7-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} fall. Neil Willerson check-called a bet of 275,000 and the two saw fourth street bring the {4-Hearts}.

Willerson checked for a second time and Mefodichev moved 650,000 into the center of the table. Willerson pushed out a call rather quickly and the {10-Spades} came on the river. Willerson checked his option for a third time prompting Mefodichev to move 1,225,000 into the middle.

"I call," said Willerson quickly.

"Nice call," replied Mefodichev. Willerson showed {J-Clubs}{7-Hearts} for a pair of sevens and was able to drag in a monster pot.
