Dan Martin Plays Some Power Poker

 Dan Martin raises to 15,000 in early position and Masaaki Kagawa calls on the button.  The flop falls [Ks8s5c] and Martin bets 26,000.  Kagawa calls and the two see the turn fall [9s].  Martin checks, Kagawa bets 40,000 and Martin calls.

The river brings the [8h] and Martin checks again.  Kagawa bets out 100,000 and Martin goes in the tank.  After a couple of minutes of thinking, Martin announces raise and makes it half a million total.  The raise comprises all but 100,000 of Kagawa’s remaining chips.

Kagawa thinks for some time and almost tosses his hand in the muck a couple of times before eventually folding, giving Martin the pot.

Dan Martin – 1,030,000
Masaaki Kagawa – 500,000
