Nice Break for Bilzerian

Shamus

There was a big hand to report that took place which extended well into the break, involving Brandon Garrity and Adam Bilzerian.

With the board showing {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

{K-Diamonds}

{9-Clubs}

{2-Hearts}

{5-Spades}

, Garrity and Bilzerian had exchanged bets to the point that Garrity had all of his 177,000 in the middle and Bilzerian -- who had Garrity covered -- was left contemplating a big call.

Finally, after several minutes and all of the other tables had long emptied of players, Bilzerian did make the call, turning over {2-Spades}

{2-Spades}

{2-Clubs}

for deuces full of fives. Garrity had but {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{9-Diamonds}

, and thus won't be returning from the break.

Bilzerian now has 505,000.
