The turn came the 6♠. Gafford now moved all in, covering the middle position‘s stack of around 30,000 chips. After thinking for quite a while, middle position called all-in.
Tanupat Punjarojanakul: 10♠Q♣9♥8♠
Middle position: K♦10♦7♥3♥
Brad Gafford: A♠K♣J♣9♠
Punjarojanakul had a wrap with a pair, while the middle-position player only had the flush draw and a double gutshot. Gafford was ahead with top two pair, but his opponents had many outs to win the hand.
However, the river was a total brick, the 2♣, and he was able to score a double knockout and chip up.
