Nakanishi Nearing a Million After Triple Barrel

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

In a four-bet pot to the {6-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop, Aaron Tourangeau checked and then called a bet worth 45,000 by Shota Nakanishi. He checked again the {2-Clubs} on the turn to then call a bet worth 75,000 and checked the {k-Clubs} on the river.

Nakanishi piled in a large bet of more than 350,000, which covered his opponent. The Japanese WSOP bracelet winner was all smiles while Tourangeau was trying to get a read and the latter opted to fold the {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts} face up.

"Come on, one time," Tourangeau demanded but Nakanishi just grinned back with a "I forgot".
