Razz

Wasicka: (X) (X) / {4-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {j-Diamonds} {a-Clubs} / (X)
Opponent1: (X) (X) / {7-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {9-Spades} {4-Diamonds} / (X)
Opponent2: (X) (X) / {8-Clubs} {7-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {k-Clubs} / (X)

What a difference one pot can make. Paul Wasicka completed the bring-in on third street and was called by two other players. He retained the betting lead on fourth street and made another bet. Both players called.

Wasicka bricked fifth street but refused to go away. The player with the best board bet and was called by Wasicka and the third player in turn. When Wasicka caught an ace on sixth street, he was able to get a raise in against both opponents. One folded, surrendering a bet he had already made; the other called and then called one more bet on the river. At showdown, Wasicka produced the nuts, {5-Spades} {2-Hearts} {4-Spades}, to drag a pot worth almost 15 big bets. He's up to 9,250 now.
