Nick Walsh opened to 40,000 from the Hi-jack, and got one customer in the form of Gary Robertson in the Big Blind.

Robinson check-called 40,000 from Walsh on the 495 flop before action went check-check on the 7 turn. When Robertson bet 115,000 on the A river, Walsh exhaled at a power that would blow down the house of The Three Little Pigs. He adjusted his hat and studied the board with surgical precision. Eventually, he let his hand go, tabling J9.

“Should be a bluff,” Walsh predicted his opponent was deep-sea fishing as his cards hit the muck. “Show it?” he asked Robertson, who agreed to the request. “It was a good fold, and I’m still mad!” an agonized Walsh groaned in pain as Robertson revealed Q10. Once he was made aware that this poker.pro live reporter caught the hand, he wished, “Write down that it was an expert fold.” I’d like to think I did him justice.

Gary Robertson: 895,000
Nick Walsh: 365,000
