Thomas Taylor Looking For That Bracelet

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Thomas Taylor came into the WSOP as one of the players to watch after his recent hot streak to start the year in Canada. He is coming into the series looking for that elusive gold bracelet, and no better event to do so than one paying over $1,000,000 for first place.

The action folded around to Taylor on the button who raised to open the pot, only to be three-bet by the big blind to 17,500. Taylor put out a four-bet to 43,000 and the big blind thought for a couple moments. He eventually moved all in and Taylor quickly snapped him off. Taylor was behind with {J-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} versus his opponent's {A-Spades}{A-Clubs} but, when the flop fell {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}, the roles were reversed. The turn was the {5-Hearts} and the river was the {10-Diamonds} as Taylor sent another opponent to the rail.
