Van Sanford Makes a Huge Call on the River

Level 3 : 150/300, 25 ante

The board read {9-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} at the turn and Ryan Van Sanford checked to Kilian Loeffler who bet 10,000 into a pot of about 50,000. Van Sanford made the call and the river fell the {2-Hearts}.

Van Sanford checked again. Loeffler moved all in for almost 30,000 — enough to cover Van Sanford. After several minutes of thought, Van Sanford made the call for his remaining 28,375 and showed {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} for kings over twos.

His opponent said, "Nice call," as he mucked {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} face up, and Van Sanford took down the pot, leaving his opponent with crumbs.
