Brabin Loses a Few, Out the Next

Level 23 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Michael Kanaan opened to 80,000 from the button, and was called by Luke Brabin in the big blind. The flop came {5-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{10-Clubs} and both players checked as the {9-Hearts} fell on the turn. Brabin slid out 70,000 in chips, and was called, before throwing out another 120,000 on the river when the {K-Spades} appeared. Kanaan hesitantly called, but was relieved when Brabin tabled his {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}. He rolled over {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} to win the hand.

In the very next hand, the action folded around to Brabin the the small blind, who open-shipped for 465,000. Anthony Hachem was in the big blind, and went into the tank for a minute. He eventually convinced himself to call, and it was the right choice.

Brabin: {10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}
Hachem: {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

Brabin must’ve been a little upset about the previous hand, and was sent to the rail when the board ran out {Q-Hearts}{5-Spades}{J-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{5-Clubs}.
