Ryan Bambrick
Ryan Bambrick

Ryan "rbam13" Bambrick raised to 200,000 from the cutoff and was met by a three-bet to 640,625 from Michael "ha8me" Policastro in the small blind. Bambrick responded by four-bet jamming for 1,227,625 and Policastro called.

Ryan "rbam13" Bambrick: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Michael "ha8me" Policastro: {a-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}

Bambrick was looking to dodge an ace or some other bad beat, and he successfully did so on both the {3-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{6-Clubs} flop and {j-Diamonds} turn. Unfortunately for him, the {a-Spades} spiked on the river to give Policastro a winning pair of aces.
