"Indian Poker Wizard" Deevara Shows Off a River Trick

David Salituro

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

In a five-way pot, action on the 9♣6♣4♠ flop was checked through before Rahul Deevara bet 4,300 from the cutoff on the 3♥ turn.

Abdullah Al-Shanti then raised to 11,000 on the button as the table folded fold to Deevara, who moved all in for 38,000. Al-Shanti called with 7♣5♠ for a turned straight, while Deevara had 6♠6♥ for a set.

Deevara needed to fill up on the river to survive, and the dealer flipped over the 3♣ to complete his full house and earn Deevara a double up.

"The Indian poker wizard," Deevara said.

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Action was picked up with cards on their backs with Michael Newman all in and at risk for his last 8,000 in the big blind up against Yuki Toyoshima in the cutoff.

Michael Newman: K♦6♦ All in
Yuki Toyoshima: A♦10♦

The board ran out K♥6♠7♠9♠2♠ and the flopped two pair was good for Newman to double up at the expense of Toyoshima.

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Three ways to the 10♥8♠8♦4♠ turn, Yan Neiman bet 5,500 out of the small blind and Isaac Rodgin called in the big blind, as did Robert Schulz in the cutoff. The 10♦ river paired the board for the second time and it checked to Schulz, who made it 25,500 to go.

Neiman folded but Rodgin sigh-called with the words "I guess you hit the ten". Schulz indeed did with the J♥10♣ as Rodgin exposed the 8♥7♣ for flopped trips eights and an inferior full house on the river.

The pot was around 45,000 and the board read 10♠6♣8♣3♥6♠. From under the gun, Jonah Silverstein bet 32,000 to put the decision on Yake Wu in the small blind.

Wu made the call after about a minute. Silverstein tabled the 8♠8♦ for a full boat and Wu mucked.

Donnie Phan recalled a hand in which his aces were cracked by the ace-king of John Hill with the latter making running clubs for a flush. "I even have a picture of it!" Phan said and was hoping to make it into the coverage. He currently has around 25 big blinds at his disposal in the blue section of the Horseshoe Ballroom.
