Eric Wasserson raised to 240,000 on the button, Mike Gorodinsky three-bet to 825,000 and Wasserson called. The flop was A♥8♣4♣ and Gorodinsky bet 650,000. Wasserson came along with the call in position.
The turn was the 10♥ and Gorodinsky checked. Wasserson spent a little over a minute in the tank before shoving all in for 3,670,000. Gorodinsky asked for a count.
"I have a very good hand," he said to Wasserson. It took Gorodinsky about a minute to find the call, suddenly creating a massive pot for almost all the chips in play.
Eric Wasserson: J♣7♣
Mike Gorodinsky: A♠Q♦
Wasserson had straight and flush outs against Gorodinsky's pair of aces but the river came the 2♥ instead to see the start of day chipleader fall in second place.
With that, Mike Gorodinsky has won his fifth World Series of Poker bracelet!
