Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Zachary Moger bet 6,500 from early position on a flop of Q♠7♦3♠ and William Broadway called in the hijack. Thomas Hannan then raised to 18,000 on the button, and only Broadway called.
The turn was the 5♥ and Hannan moved all in for 42,000. Broadway took a minute before calling with A♠6♠, while Hannan was ahead with K♠7♣ for a pair of sevens. The river was the 5♦, and Hannan secured the pot.
A count of the chips showed he had Broadway barely covered, and Broadway was sent to the rail. "Sick value bet, sir," a tablemate told him.
"I was only gambling," Hannan replied.
