Boatman Doubles Through Neff in Another Huge Pot
Big O
The PokerNews reporting team isn't sure what the players at the final table had to eat during their dinner break, but whatever it was, it's led to them firing away with some huge pots.
The latest saw Scott Abrams raise to 200,000 in the cutoff, then Peter Neff call on the button, before Barny Boatman made it 800,000 to go from the big blind.
Both opponents called and over 2,400,000 was already in the pot.
The players all checked the 
flop, but on the 
turn, Boatman moved all in for his last 1,850,000. Abrams quickly folded, but Neff had a decision.
After a couple of minutes of deliberation, he called to risk a huge portion of the stack he'd just won by eliminating Men Nguyen.
Barny Boatman: 
Peter Neff: 
Boatman's two pair of kings and queens were the best made hand, but Neff had a massive wrap, flush, and low draws.
The river however, brought the 
, bringing Neff none of his world of outs and sending the monstrous pot to Boatman, while suddenly putting Neff on the shortest stack of the final four players.
