Taylor Keeps Firing
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Thomas Taylor opened 25,000 in the hijack and both Michael Cox and Manuel Fischer came along in the blinds.
The dealer fanned a flop of Q♠J♣10♦ and once checked to, Taylor continued for 40,000. Only Cox made the call.
The 9♠ fell on the turn and Cox checked once again. Taylor fired 80,000, putting Cox to a decision. After enquiring with the dealer how much was in the pot, Cox made the call.
The 5♦ completed the board on the river and Cox checked for a final time. Taylor wasted no time announcing a pot-sized bet, and Cox' cards flung into the muck.
