Garman Rides Big Action to a Big Pot
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
The player under the gun raised to 5,000 and the middle position player and the big blind, Christopher Garman, both came along for the ride.
The flop showed 8♥10♦6♦ and that's when everything went wild.
Garman checked, under-the-gun bet 8,000, the middle position player shoved all of his chips in for about 33,000 and Garman re-shoved with the bigger stack, getting the player under-the-gun player to fold.
Middle position: A♦5♦ for a nut-flush draw.
Christopher Garman: 10♠9♥ for top pair with a gutshot possibility.
Garman beckoned "no diamonds!" The dealer did not oblige and delivered the 8♦ on the turn. But that card did pair the board, and when the river came the 10♥, Garman was back on top with a pot-scooping full house.
