Gicovanu Spikes the Turn, Gavrila Gets Away on the River
Level 23
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Viorel Gavrila raised to 125,000 in early position with Q♥Q♣ and Marius Gicovanu defended 10♦6♦.
Gicovanu led out for 75,000 on the 6♠7♥5♥ flop and Gavrila called. The 6♣ turn gave Gicovanu trip sixes and he led out again, this time for 285,000.
Gavrila called once more to the J♣ river, where Gicovanu bet 750,000. Gavrila burned through several time bank cards before he mucked his two queens.
