Roiter Paid Off by Cowen

Level 10 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

Klemens Roiter on the button and Robert Cowen in the big blind had created a bloated pot with 174,000 in the middle going to the river.

With the board reading A5387, Cowen checked to Roiter who bet the pot of 174,000, sending Cowen deep into the tank. Four time extensions later, he slammed calling chips into the middle.

"Straight," Roiter announced, tabling K764 for the rivered second nuts, and he collected one of the largest pots of the day.
