Big Double for Gottlieb

John Gottlieb
John Gottlieb

Steve Jelinek raised to 240,000 from the button and John Gottlieb called. The flop came down {K-Clubs}{10-Spades}{8-Hearts} and Gottlieb check-called a pot-sized bet from Jelinek. The turn was the {4-Diamonds} and Gottlieb fired all in. Jelinek made the call.

Gottlieb held the {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}{J-Hearts}{7-Spades} and Jelinek held the {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}.

The river completed the board with the {9-Clubs} and gave Gottlieb a straight. He began jumping up and down, having doubled up with a scoop. Gottlieb now has about three million in chips.

Anders Taylor raised the pot from the button and then Steve Jelinek reraised from the big blind to put Taylor all in. Taylor called off the small remainder of his stack and the hands were turned over.

Taylor held the {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and was up against the {J-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for Jelinek.

The flop was huge for Jelinek when it came {9-Spades}{6-Hearts}{6-Clubs} and gave him a full house. The turn was the {8-Clubs} and the river the {K-Clubs}. Taylor filed to improve on the turn and river, giving Jelinek the pot and eliminated Taylor on the hand.

Taylor earned just short of $100,000 for his third-place finish while Jelinek increased his lead going into heads-up play.
