Stevenson Gets an Early Birthday Gift
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Paul Stevenson moved all in for 35,000 under the gun and Noah Borchard called in the hijack. Gabe Gaddis then reshoved for 70,000 in the big blind, and Borchard once again called to put both players at risk.
Paul Stevenson: A♥4♥
Gabe Gaddis: 10♥10♣
Noah Borchard: A♣Q♣
Gaddis was ahead with his tens until the flop brought A♠6♥2♥, giving both Borchard and Stevenson top pair. The turn was the [9d and Borchard was poised for the double knockout, but Stevenson caught the 7♥ on the river to make a flush and triple up. Borchard took the side pot to send Gaddis to the rail.
"Is it really your birthday today?" Cole McFarland asked Stevenson.
"Yes it is. 47 today," Stevenson replied.
