Distenfeld Secures Back-to-Back Hands with Aggression
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
WSOP bracelet winner Gershon Distenfeld is usually in a giving mood away from the poker table. He’s known to donate his winnings to charities, after all.
But on two straight hands in Level 24, Distenfeld showed his ability to take on the poker table.
On the first hand, Distenfeld raised 115,000 in middle position and the player to his immediate left called.
The dealer fanned Q♥A♠7♦ on the flop. Distenfeld led out with 175,000, and his opponent quickly mucked his cards.
The next sequence saw Distenfeld once again raise to 115,000. This time, though, Distenfeld got no action as the table folded to his aggression. But he did secure the blinds and antes for a profit.
