Thrilla
Level 12: 1,200/2,400 with a 400 ante
Players Remaining: 25 of 129
On the turn with the board reading [Ac][7c][2c][Tc], Albert Ng checks from the big blind and Kevin Martin bets 11,000 from middle position. Ng calls and the river is the [5s].
There is about 45,000 in the pot and Ng checks. Martin moves all in for effectively Ng’s remaining 54,000. Ng spends several minutes in the tank before finally releasing his hand.
He wins the pot and flashes the [4h] as he collects the pot, which generates some noise from some of the spectators around him. Martin’s stack is growing at a rapid pace and he’s got just over 15% of the chips in play with four tables still remaining.
Kevin Martin – 400,000
