Ausmus Fills Up on Housenbold
Level 11
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Jeremy Ausmus and Jeffrey Housenbold built up a massive pot heading to the river on a board of Q♥K♠Q♠J♦J♣ when Ausmus made a pot-sized bet of 335,000.
Housenbold, with around 150,000 remaining, used a time bank before he called. Ausmus showed A♦Q♣J♥4♥ for queens full of jacks.
"I need pocket kings, right," Housenbold asked as he looked back at his hand, but he could only show A♥10♣7♥6♥ for the straight.
"I thought you were taking advantage of me," he told Ausmus as the Silicon Valley venture capitalist asked to take a picture with Ausmus before departing. Ausmus even held up his winning hand.
"That's a needle," a tablemate said.
