Ruben Gets There to Scoop
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
After an open to 2,600, Brad Ruben three-bet to 10,400 and Kanishak Sethi, Howard Weston, and Jason Hickey, who was all in for less.
The flop came out J♦Q♥8♥ and the action checked through the three players on the side to see the 2♥ on the turn. Weston and Sethi checked to Ruben again, who bet 14,500 and was called by Sethi to see the 4♥ fall on the river.
Sethi checked once more, and Ruber set out a stack big enough to cover, and Sethi went into the tank. After a few moments, he shook his head and folded the J♥, much to the surprise of the table.
"Good fold," Ruben assured him as he flipped over A♥K♦ for the rivered nut flush to take down the pot, eliminating Hickey, who held Q♣J♣ for two-pair.
