Keating Left Short After Paying Off Garshofsky
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Mitch Garshofsky raised to 45,000 in the small blind, Alex Keating three-bet to 130,000 in the big blind, and Garshofsky called.
Both players checked the 8♥5♥6♠ flop. Garshofsky then led out for 200,000 on the J♣ turn, and Keating called.
The river was the K♣ and Garshofsky bet another 400,000. Keating ended up burning through four time banks and taking several minutes before calling once more with A♣J♥, but Garshofsky had 5♦5♣ for a set to win the big pot and leave Keating on a short stack.
