Baker Rivers a Boat
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
David "Bakes" Baker was heads-up from middle position against the player in the big blind. Baker had a bet in front of him and his opponent check-raised to 7,500. Baker called.
Baker called a 10,000 barrel from his opponent on the K? turn and then the big blind checked after the 2? completed the board.
Baker fired 28,000 into the middle, which put his opponent deep into the tank. He eventually put in a call and Baker showed A?2? for deuces-full of aces. His opponent mucked after saying, "That's what I was afraid of," and Baker collected the nice pot.
