Law Triples Up as Gheba Hits the Rail
Level 32
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Jules Rohr opened to 600,000 from under the gun and set off a chain reaction of all-ins that nobody expected. First, Daniyal Gheba shoved from middle position for around 5,800,000. Ryan Law then moved his stack of around 6,000,000 into the middle from the small blind.
In the big blind was Steven Frew, and he wasted no time in making the call, which put two players at risk. Rohr, seeing all the action in front of him, folded his K♠Q♠ face up.
Daniyal Gheba: A♦Q♥
Ryan Law: K♥K♦
Steven Frew: A♣K♣
"I'm dead aren't I," said Gheba, who was in the worst shape preflop. He did catch a pair on the turn of 9♠9♣2♦Q♦, but the 6♠ river changed nothing as Law scooped the massive pot to triple up. Gheba was eliminated, and Frew's stack took a big hit.
