Beckenstein Spikes the River to Bust Augustino
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Anthony Augustino opened to 120,000 from the hijack before Joshua Beckenstein made it 350,000 from the small blind. Augustino went into a lengthy tank, checking his cards multiple times before moving all in for 1,125,000.
"Only thing making me pause is the Hollywood," commented Beckenstein, who was expertly handling a fidget cube.
After getting Augsutino's chip count, Beckenstein called.
Anthony Augustino: Q♠Q♣
Joshua Beckenstein: K♦Q♥
Beckenstein went from three outs to seven after picking up a gutshot on the 10♣6♠9♦ flop. The 8♦ turn was clean for Augustino but Beckenstein made his straight on the J♣ river, putting a grimace on everyone's face.
Even Beckenstein felt he didn't deserve that one, shaking his head as he collected the pot.
