TakiNG That to the Banks
Niveau 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
After betting 40,000 on the flop of 7♠7♦6♠, heads-up opponents Kirk Banks and Brian Ng decided to check through the turn 9♣ and went straight to the river 8♥.
This saw a bet of 125,000 from Banks but then Ng ripped it all, covering Banks.
Banks went into the tank briefly as Ng drank some of his water. after around 30 seconds or so, Banks said "screw it" and pushed the rest of his stack into the middle, putting himself at risk. Ng then announced he only had eight-six for two-pair while Banks proudly flipped over 9♦10♠ for a made straight on the river to take down the big pot.
