Apestyles Takes A Big One
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Action was picked up on the turn between Jon "Apestyles" Van Fleet in first position, and another player in the cutoff.
The board read Q♦9♥4♣10♠ and Van Fleet bet 40,000 which his opponent called.
On the river 6♠, Van Fleet bet 110,000 and his opponent asked how many green 25k chips he had behind, which Van Fleet showed was six. His opponent raised to 290,000 and Van Fleet called after a few seconds.
The cutoff turned over 8♣8♥ for a pair of eights, which was second best against Van Fleet's A♣Q♠ for top pair, which was good for the pot to push Van Fleet up the chip counts.
