| Bryce McVay (Jupiter, FL) |
What seemed like a simple blind v. blind confrontation, turned into one of the bigger pots of the day at Table 5. After action folded around to Bryce McVay in the small blind, he'd complete, and wait to see what Steven McKoy decided to do. McKoy raised to 15,000, and the two would see a flop of 2♦ 5♠ 10♦, after Bryce made the call.
McVay then check-called a 20,000 flop bet from McKoy, with the action following going check-check after the board paired with another 10♣. The river brought a third ten (2♦ 5♠ 10♦ 10♣ 10♥), and after Bryce checked, McKoy put out a huge overbite of 200,000 (putting Bryce all-in). Bryce is a player who is very calculated to start, so taking time with decisions is nothing new for him. He took a solid 3-4 minutes before deciding to make the call, with McKoy rolling over 3♣ 6♣. The bluff almost got through for McKoy, but McVay called with A♥ 5♥, with his full house good for a pot worth over 400,000.
Bryce McVay - 420,000
Steven McKoy - 185,000
