Walter's Soldiers Carry the Day
Niveau 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
George Walter bet 7,000 from early position on a A♣6♦9♦ flop and Stephen Hornacek came along.
When the Q♣ came on the turn, Walter asked for a pot calculation, and then deliberately placed all 37,200 of his remaining soldiers in regimented lines in front of him. Hornacek took a moment to consider, gave his chips a kiss for luck, and made the call.
George Walter: A♠Q♠4♦4♠3♥
Stephen Hornacek: K♠8♠7♠5♠3♠
Walter led with two pair and a better low draw and the 9♥ river secured him the double.
