A seemingly standard button open erupted into a massive 1.8 million pot!
Tom Robertson raised to 150K from the button, Andrew Dinger called, but Patrick Lacey turned up the heat with a raise to 600K. Robertson shoved for 300K more, Dinger ducked out of the way, and Lacey made the call with his tournament-leading stack.
Robertson: K♠9♠Q♥J♥
Lacey: K♥4♥K♦6♦
The T♠T♣T♦ flop spelled immediate disaster for Robertson, giving Lacey's kings a full house! The 7♣ turn and 5♠ river were just a formality, sending Robertson to the rail in 5th place while Lacey's stack grew even more intimidating.
Lacey - 1,900,000
Robertson - 0
