2024 World Series of Poker
Action folded around to Jimmy D'Ambrosio in the small blind and he limped before calling a raise to 3,000 from Henry Chan in the big blind. "You know I'm gonna lead out on any flop right," joked D'Ambrosio as the two friends from a Chicago home game prepared to battle in a heads-up pot.
D'Ambrosio kept his word following the 4♥5♥10♠ flop by tossing 3,500 into the middle. Chan stuck around to see a turn.
The Ax turn saw D'Ambrosio slow down, checking to Chan, who bet 10,000. With a "not today Henry" D'Ambrosio moved all in with the covering stack. Chan called off for his remaining 32,000 to put himself at risk.
Henry Chan: 5x4x
Jimmy D'Ambrosio: 3♣2♣
D'Ambrosio had turned the wheel to leave Chan needing to fill up to survive. The 9♦ river kept the straight best to send last year's 31st place finisher out short of the money while propelling D'Ambrosio up the chip counts.
Three players saw a flop of A♦A♠8♠. Dominique Mosley bet 3,000. Felipe Ramos folded and Bradley Rogoff called.
The turn was the 4♥. Rogoff fired out 8,000 which was enough to get the job done as he continues to lead the table of death in the gold section.
Action was picked up on the river with 21,800 in the pot and the board showing Q♣A♦2♣5♣J♥.
David Feldman from the big blind checked to Roman Hrabec on the button, who bet 14,900 to put Feldman all in. After taking some time to think through his decision, Feldman made the call to put his tournament life at risk.
Hrabec tabled 10♣7♦ for ten-high, and Feldman showed Q♠10♦ for a pair of queens to secure the double up.
