Clinton Vercler Wins Big Pot With Straight
Jan 20, '18
Clinton Vercler
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 K
10
4 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.
