Gambrell Gets Paid on the River
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Phil Gambrell raised to 4,000 on the button and Nicholas Sanguiliano defended in the big blind.
The flop came 8♣A♦10♣ and both players checked to the 2♥ turn, where Sanguiliano check-called a bet of 2,000.
On the 4♦ river, Sanguiliano checked again and Gambrell bet 10,000. Given that the bet represented half of Sanguiliano's remaining stack, he took some time before making the call.
He saw the bad news when Gambrell turned over A♣10♥ for two pair, aces and tens.
