Distenfeld Wins Five-Way Pot

Level 1 : Limits 600/1,200, 0 ante

Gershon Distenfeld: A104/AQ4K
John Morano: XxXx/9862/Xx
Jonathan Krela: XxXx/K4Q7/Xx
Cyndy Violette: XxXx/5J10 - folded on fifth street
Michael Dwyer: XxXx/27 - folded on fourth street

Five-ways on fourth street, Gershon Distenfeld bet and was called by John Morano, Cyndy Violette, and Jonathan Krela. Michael Dwyer folded.

Distenfeld bet again on fifth street, which got called from Morano and Krela, but a fold from Violette.

On sixth street, Distenfeld bet and both his opponents called before everyone checked down on seventh.

Distenfeld showed his hole cards for aces-up, which got mucks from both Morano and Krela to send the sizable pot Distenfeld's way.
