Berry Wins Huge Pot With Straight Flush
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Keith McKuin raised preflop from under the gun and was three-bet by Hector Berry in the seat next to him. McKuin called to create a pot of 150,000 chips and see the flop of Q♥J♦5♠.
McKuin checked, Berry continued for 55,000 chips, and McKuin called. Both players checked on the 10♦ turn before the 9♦ river completed the board.
McKuin checked for a third time, but Berry piled in a massive bet of 325,000 chips. McKuin spent some minutes in the tank before calling off about half his stack.
Berry opened up K♦Q♦ for a rivered straight flush, sending McKuin's cards into the muck.
