Gould’s ‘Beautiful Hand’ Scores Double Up
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Robert Gould moved all in at the cutoff position for his remaining 155,000.
The button and small folded, and then the player in the big blind asked for a count, which the dealer confirmed.
After a brief moment, the player in the big blind called to put Gould at risk.
“I have a beautiful hand,” Gould said before tabling his hand.
Robert Gould: J♣10♣
Opponent: A♠6♠
Gould was behind preflop to his opponent’s ace, but the tables were turned when the dealer placed 6♣J♦4♦ on the board to give Gould a pair of jacks.
The 7♥ on the turn and 7x on the river gave Gould two pair and the win.
