The 6♥ on the turn doesn’t change much. Brandon check-raises All-in for his remaining $142,000 and gets snap-called. Pot Size: $490,500
Steven only has one out and they run it twice:
- First Runout: Brings the J♣, which secures Bobo half the pot.

4-way to an action flop of 2♥9♦K♦, which gives JRB a very disguided Two Pair, while Brandon has a pair and flush draw.
