Gheba Suprasses a Milly
Level 19
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Daniyal Gheba raised to 30,000 from the cutoff and Brandon Cantu jammed for around 200,000 from the small blind. Gheba called and the players went to a showdown.
Brandon Cantu: A♠4♦
Daniyal Gheba: A♥J♠
Gheba had the best hand with ace-jack and his kicker proved needed on the Q♣7♠10♠8♣K♠A♣ runout as both players hit an ace.
Cantu's tournament was over, and Gheba moved into seven-figure territory.
