Nichols Blasts His Way Up the Counts
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Steven Nichols was facing a bet of 12,000 from an opponent under the gun on a flop of J?9?10? and called in middle position.
The turn came the 8? and action checked to Nichols, who now opened the betting for 16,500. His opponent called to the 2? river, where Nichols fired out another 26,000.
The under-the-gun player slid his cards into the muck as Nichols took the pot and is now approaching 500,000.
