Monster pot for nearly 1.4 million chips...
Simon raises, roger shoves and Simon instacalls... Simon shows AJ and Roger 10 2... The flop helps no-one but a 2 on the turn and another 2 on the river makes Roger the massive chip leader... This leaves Simon with around 300k |
|
By:
Very next hand Simon shoves and Roger calls..
Simon shows 9 10 and Roger KQ.. The flop is blank as is the turn and river so an unlucky Simon Brooks leaves in 3rd with £6,525 [ This image is no longer available. ] |
