Gavri Catches Running Quads to Cooler Steven
Gavri opened 5♠5♥ to $3,500, Steven called with 2♥2♣, and Elamawy called with J♥4♠. The pot was 14,600.
The flop came K♠2♠3♠, giving Steven a set of duces, but the other two players were left empty-handed. Two players checked Gavri bet $3,000, and Steven called. The pot was $17,600.
The turn was 5♦, giving Gavri a set of fives against Steven’s set of duces. Steven checked again; Gavri fired a bet of $11,000, which got raised to $29,000 by Steven; Gavri called. The pot was $75,600.
The river came 5♣, securing the hand for Gavri, but he only had $39,000 behind. Steven shoved, and Gavri snap-called to win the pot of $153,600. Steven couldn’t believe what had happened, and Gavri admitted it was bad cooler.
Steven Gets His Money Back
Steven opened to $5,000 with 3♥3♣, and only Pacheco called with 10♠6♠. The pot was $11,900.
The dealer put down J♣3♦6♥ on the flop, giving Steven a set, but surely he had flashbacks to hand against Gavri. Pacheco checked, Steven c-bet for $7,000, and Pacheco called with the second pair. The pot was $25,900.
The turn came 4♥, inducing the same action as the earlier street, but this time, Steven bet $20,000, and Pacheco called. The pot was 65,900.
The river was Q♠, and it looked like it might kill the action for Steven, who bet $47,000, but this wasn’t the case as Pacheco went for a bluffcatch and was disappointed when he saw his opponent show him the set of threes. Steven won the pot of $159,900.
Elamawy Bluffs the Bluffer
Steven opened to $4,000 with 8♥6♥, Elamawy 3-bet to $20,000 with A♣K♣, and Steven was the only caller. The pot was $43,500.
The flop came Q♦J♥4♦, and both players checked.
The turn was 3♠, Steven fired a bluff of $37,000, and Elamawy called. The pot was $117,500.
The river came 5♥, and Steven continued to bluff and went for a bet of $77,000; Elamawy responded with an all-in, holding the ace high and forcing Steven to fold his bluff. Elamawy won the pot of $271,500.
Elamawy Ran Robl Over For One Mill
Robl opened to $2,000 with K♠K♣, Elamawy 3-bet to $10,400 with A♣K♥, Robl 4-bet to $35,000, Elamawy 5-bet to $150,000, Robl 6-bet shove for $489,000 and Elamawy called and we get the biggest pot of the season. The pot was $981,300.
They decided to run it twice, and the first board was Q♦9♦A♥7♠8♦, securing Elamawy at least half of the pot.
The second runout wasn’t better for Robl, as the dealer put down 6♥7♥A♦3♠4♣, giving Elamawy the other piece of the pot. Elamawy won $981,300, which was one of the biggest pots in the show’s history.
