Welch Earns Over a Million Chip Pot

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

With almost 400,000 in the middle on a turn board of {q-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}, Robert Welch bet 275,000 from the small blind and was met with an all-in raise from Andre Marques in middle position for almost 600,000.

Welch went deep into the tank, then made the call.

Andre Marques: {a-Spades}{j-Spades}
Robert Welch: {q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}

Marques' Broadway straight had been caught by Welch's queen-high flush, with the {2-Hearts} on the river proving irrelevant.

With the win, Welch moves nearer to the two million chip club.
