Skaggs Chipping Away in Attempt to Slow Cook A Victory
Level 30
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Yusuke Tanaka raised from under the gun to 300,000 and Thomas Skaggs called from the big blind leading to a A♥J♥5♦ flop.
Skaggs checked over to Tanaka who continued with a bet of 500,000. Skaggs paused briefly before putting in the call to take both players to the 10♠ turn.
Action checked through to bring out the 9♥ on the river.
Skaggs thought for a short moment before counting out chips and sliding a bet of 1,600,000 into the middle.
Tanaka didn't waste much time in folding which ignited cheers of, "Rump Roast! Let's go, baby!" from Skaggs' friend on the rail who may or may not be the only person on Earth that calls him by that nickname.
