Karr Catches The River

We walked up to the table on the river, with the board showing {4-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{a-Spades}. There was about 9,000 in the middle, and McLean Karr had thrown out a bet of 3,975. His lone opponent was in the tank for about a minute while we were there. Eventually, he grabbed the chips, and rolled them into the middle for the call. Karr flipped over {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for a rivered pair of aces, and his opponent mucked.

Karr shot back up to 87,000 after that hand.
