Clinton Vercler Wins Big Pot With Straight
Jan 20, '18
After a limp, Robert Foster limped in as well and was met with a raise to 500 from Michael Hassab. Clinton Vercler called from the cutoff, Keith Wright called from the small blind and so did both original limpers.
The flop came down K104 and Foster led out for 2,500. Both Hassab and Vercler called, and the Q hit the turn.
This time, Foster bet 3,000, and was again called by both opponents. The river was the Q and this time, Foster checked. Hassab checked, and Verler bet 10,000.
Foster went into the tank for about 30 seconds before folding, and Hassab folded what appeared to be a busted flush draw. Vercler dragged the pot, and then let his opponents off the hook by showing them AJ for a turned Broadway straight. He now has 65,000 in chips.
