Palmer "Rocks It In"

Adam Lamers

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Benjamin Palmer raised to 5,500 in middle position and Chino Rheem flat-called on the button. They went heads-up to a flop of 7♠5♥2♠ where Palmer started with a check. Rheem tossed in a bet of 7,000 and Palmer check-raised to 23,000 which Rheem called.

The turn was the 3♣ and Palmer just ripped all in for 103,000. Rheem had a decision to make for his stack of 86,000 and went deep into the tank.

"What f***ing hand do you have?" Rheem questioned as Palmer sat comfortably. "You just rocked it in there. Ace-king of spades?"

Rheem thought for a little longer and then eventually laid his hand down. Palmer didn't show his cards but agreed to tell Rheem later.

Linde was ahead and took an even bigger lead on the A♠2♦4♦ flop, hitting top pair. The 10♥ turn left Shaw drawing dead, and Linde secured the double up once the 4♥ fell on the river.

Matthew Sabia raised to 5,000 under the gun and Nick Yunis called in middle position. Daniel Maor then three-bet to 30,000 on the button, and both opponents called.

Nick Yunis: Q♦Q♠

Maor had flopped top pair, but he needed to improve against Yunis' two queens. The 8♣ turn was no help, while the river was the 2♦ and Maor was sent to the rail.
