A Rare Showdown

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

We haven't had too many showdowns today. Even when a hand has gone to showdown, it hasn't always resulted in cards being revealed. This time, however, at least one hand was opened in an unraised pot between Javed Abrahams and Diwei Huang. Huang led out for 35,000 on a flop of {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

{7-Diamonds}

{3-Clubs}

. Abrahams made the call.

When the turn fell {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

, Huang again bet 35,000. Abrahams thought a bit longer before again making the call. The river was a seeming blank, the {2-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

. Huang led out for 55,000 and after about 20 seconds, Abrahams made the call. Huang showed {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{5-Hearts}

for two pair, queens and fives, and the winning hand.
