Cruel River Sinks Geyer

[user4144]

In one of the few multi-way pots, four players see a {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

{2-Spades}

{3-Clubs}

flop. After everyone checks, Sean Brandow bets out 25,000 only for Geyer to repop for 25,000 total. Brandow pushes all in for a total of 27,000, and Geyer quickly calls the added 2,000 worth of shrapnel.

Although Brandow has flopped the set with {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

{3-Diamonds}

, his check allowed Geyer to catch up on the turn, the latter's {4-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

{4-Hearts}

making a straight and looking good for the win.

However, it's a cruel cruel game, and with the {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

on the river, Geyer takes an untimely hit and sees his stack drop to 22,000. Brandow, meanwhile, jumps up to 52,000.
