Gambrell Gets There on the River
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Around 15,000 was already in the pot as Phillip Gambrell and an opponent went to the turn on a board of 5♣2♣K♠Q♣. The big blind then bet 12,000, and Gambrell called in the cutoff.
The river was the 4♣ and the big blind moved all in for 7,900. Gambrell tanked for a minute before calling, and the big blind showed Q♦Q♥ for a set. Gambrell, though, had rivered a flush with 7♠7♣ to win the pot and send his opponent to the rail.
