Deardorff Catches Up on the River
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Andrew Esposito raised to 60,000 in early position and was called by Ron McMillen and Kristen Deardorff in the blinds. The flop fell 
and the action checked around to the 
on the turn.
It checked to Esposito again who finally threw in a bet of 60,000. McMillen called and Deardorff check-raised to 250,000. Esposito just called and McMillen got out of the way.
The river was the 
and Deardorff slowed down with a check. Esposito checked it back and Deardorff turned over 
for a rivered full house. Esposito showed his 
for a smaller full house and Deardorff claimed the pot.
"I don't feel right taking this pot. But I will," Deardorff said after the hand.
