Savage Puts Tough Beat on Opponent
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
A player from early position went all-in for 15,500 before Christopher Savage joined with a shove for his final 21,500 from the cutoff to put his opponent at risk.
Opponent: A♦10♥
Christopher Savage: 8♥6♥
"I'm gambling for both of us since we are low," said Savage after they turned their hands over.
The flop came J♦4♣5♣ to give Savage a gutshot straight draw.
Savage fell further behind on the 10♠ turn, but he was still confident heading into the river.
"That's a great turn for me," said Savage. "Seven-ball corner pocket."
Savage manifested his reality as the 7♥ peeled on the river to give Savage a straight and sent his opponent packing.
