Maybery Hits the River For Another Knockout
"Big one," tablemate Matthew Brown said as Garett Maybery and Rudolph Bourg went to the river on a board of 8♠5♣5♠9♥K♥. According to Brown, Maybery had bet 1,400 from under the gun on the flop and Bourg raised to 3,500 in the cutoff. Maybery called, then called another bet of 3,500 from Bourg on the turn.
Bourg bet 16,000 on the river, and this time Maybery moved all in. "Kings full? I bet it so you would call," Bourg said as he went deep into the tank. He had around 27,000 more, and took a few minutes before calling.
Rudolph Bourg: 7♦6♦
Garett Maybery: K♣K♦
Maybery did, indeed, show kings for a rivered full house, and Bourg sent his hand into the muck before heading to the rail.
"You're going to win the tournament," a tablemate said to Maybery.
"Long way to go," Maybery replied.
