Tony G, Eljach Play All-In Pot Blind
Level 6
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Tony G was standing up from the table conversing with Leon Tsoukernik as the next hand at his table began to be dealt.
"Deal me in. I'm qualified," Tony G said, returning to his seat and posting the big blind.
"Tony G is in the house," Tsoukernik called out.
Action then folded to Omar Eljach in the small blind who moved all in blind. Tony G called off his last 12,500, also without looking.
Omar Eljach: 8♦7♣5♠4♦
Tony G: A♠Q♦J♣9♦
The flop came Q♠8♥8♣, giving Eljach trip eights. "It's over," Tony G said.
The turn, though, was the Q♥ as Tony G made trip queens. "It's over, for you," he now said heading to the 3♠ river as Tony G doubled up.
