Curry's Gamble Pays Off

LoriPersinger

Level 35 : 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante

Adrian Curry raised to 2,400,000, and action folded to Beau Battista, who three-bet shoved his remaining 12,800,000.

When action folded back around to Curry he made the call, saying, "Gamble, I came here to win," and the players tabled their hands.

Beau Battista:
Adrian Curry:

The gamble didn't look too good on the board, but that all changed when the dealer put the on the river, which gave Curry a set and eliminated Battista from the tournament.

Battista took it all in stride, saying it was ok because he had pretty much done the same thing to another player earlier in the tournament.

Dream Flop for Gugliuzza

Yori Epskamp

Level 36 : 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante

Anthony Gugliuzza raised from the small blind and Tomas Morlet defended the big blind. On the flop, Gugliuzza bet, Morlet shoved about 10,000,000, and Gugliuzza snapped him off.

Tomas Morlet:
Anthony Gugliuzza:

Morlet jolted out of his seat and begged for a ten. They remained hidden in the deck on the turn and river, shipping another pot to Gugliuzza.

"I was just trying to steal, man," Gugliuzza apologetically said about his preflop action, and Daniel Gamer chimed in with a "yeah, that's totally insane," in regards to the perfect flop.

"That was a good flop," Gugliuazza said, deadpanned.
