Hand 167: Bac Hits a Miracle on the River to Win the Gold Bracelet

2nd Place Finisher Adam Geyer
2nd Place Finisher Adam Geyer
Here's how it went down:

Dao Bac completed the bet from the small blind, after which Adam Geyer made it 60,000 to go; Dao called.

The flop came {5-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{10-Spades}. Bac checked to Geyer who bet 30,000, which was met by a reraise from Bac; Geyer just called.

The {3-Clubs} came on the turn and Bac once again checked to Geyer, who bet 60,000. Bac then check-raised a second time, upping the ante to 120,000. By this time, Geyer found himself pot committed and moved all-in for 30,000 more; Bac called.

When they turned their cards over, Geyer held a commanding lead, revealing {A-Spades}{7-Hearts} for a pair of 7's with the top kicker; Bac showed a mere {4-Spades}{7-Spades} and was drawing to a 6 for a gutshot straight, or a 4 for two pair.

Amazingly, the {4-Hearts} was the last card off the deck, giving Bac his two pair and the gold bracelet.

For his second place finish, Adam Geyer received $86,691 in prize money.
