Gonzaga Quintuples Up
Level 18
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Theodore Gonzaga jammed for 40,000 from middle position and was called by the hijack, the cutoff, Zal Irani on the button, and Jose Noboa in the small blind.
Noboa jammed for 105,000 on the J♠9♣3♦ flop, pushing out the hijack. The cutoff rejammed for 196,000 and Irani called to set up the four way all-in.
Theodore Gonzaga: 2♦2♥
Jose Noboa: A♣J♣
Cutoff: K♣J♦
Zal Irani: 10♠9♦
Gonzaga improved to a set on the 2♣ turn to stay alive and held out scoop in the main pot after the 3♠ river.
Noboa took the first side pot with ace-jack, while the cutoff had a small rebate as he bested Irani's pair of nines.
