Phil Paxton Knocks One Out with Straight


The board read KcKcKcKc and Phil Paxton was under the gun against one opponent in middle position. His opponent had a bet of 4,000 in front of him, and Paxton moved all of his chips into the middle. He had his opponent covered.

His opponent shook his head before committing his remaining stack of right around 30,000.

Paxton: KcKc
Opponent: KcKc

His opponent's set of queens was behind the turned straight of Paxton, and Paxton was still good on the Kc river.

Phil Paxton - 72,500

Level - 6
Blinds - 200/400
Antes 50
Entries - 95

B) He has    The flop comes out      , top pair for Player A, backdoor Broadway draw for Player B, Puccio has a gutter straight draw, Hochman still has the best hand and picked up the best backdoor flush draw too. Turn is  , river is   and most all of the chips in the entire building go sliding towards Hochman. No, really, he's now not just the D...
