Chamani Gets Some Value From Horgan

Christian Zetzsche

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Ronit Chamani made it 240,000 to go from an early position with the A♦K♥ and Colin Horgan came along out of the big blind with the Q♥8♥. On the flop of J♠10♣8♣ flop, Horgan check-called for 200,000 and made two pair with the Q♣ turn to check. Chamani checked behind with broadway and the J♥ river paired the board.

Horgan checked once again and Chamani bet 300,000. The smirk of the Irishman followed, who then glanced back at the board. He eventually called and Horgan nodded.

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Ronit Chamani raised from an early position to 240,000 and Saurabh Gulati defended the big blind. On the A♦A♣9♣ flop, Gulati checked and then jammed into a bet by Chamani for 200,000 to get snapped off.

Saurabh Gulati: A♠4♦ All in
Ronit Chamani: A♥J♥

The 9♦ turn made a split pot very likely and Gulati fist-pumped already. Nothing changed with the 3♣ and Gulati chopped to stay in contention.
