Kuether Wins Biggest Pot of Heads Up So Far

Kuether raised to 100,000 preflop, and Cronin called. The flop came down {5-Spades}{2-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, and both players checked. The turn came the {4-Hearts}, and Cronin fired out 100,000. Kuether assembled a bet of 250,000, and slid it into the middle. It was back to Cronin, who took about 20 seconds before he put in a reraise to 575,000 total. Kuether thought for about 45 seconds before making the call, swelling the pot up to over 1.2 million.

The river brought a scary {6-Hearts}, and Cronin slowed down and checked. Kuether assembled a huge bet of 1.15 million, and slid it into the middle. Cronin looked pained as Kuether slid the bet in, and we went deep into the tank. After about two minutes, Cronin open folded {5-Hearts}{2-Spades} for flopped two pair, and Kuether raked in the massive pot.
