From what I've read (not much only one post from another user but it seemed likely) the 1.7 million dollar pot she obtained at Bellagio was composed first of all, against Andy Beal, a Texas billionaire who plays high-stakes poker for rushes against absolute top players. They were playing 30k-60k limit by the way, so I'm not sure how many BBs it would take to get to that point but a lot clearly. Preflop Jen had KQ and Andy had K10s, there was probably a raise but they didn't mainly built the pot here of course. The flop came down A J 10 with two spades so Jen had flopped the absolute nuts and Andy flopped a monster draw hand with the nut flush draw, gutshot royal draw and straight draw, and bottom pair (ha, I would assume he ignored this). So Andy, whom I assume is recklessly aggressive due to being filty rich out of poker, built a huge pot on the flop. The turn was a blank: more raising and the river was a blank so Jennifer's hand held up. That is the story of that monstrous pot, now I will hope that her kidney transplant works out all right.
