Andrew Brokos Back From the Brink

Andrew Brokos
Andrew Brokos

Three players had chips in the pot hoping to see a flop by the time it got to Andrew Brokos in the small blind who moved all in for 26,000.

The big stack at the table, Paul Michaelis, was the player who called.

Brokos: {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}
Michaelis: {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

The board ran out {k-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}.

When the dust settled, it was Brokos who had hung on with the baby pair to collect the pot, or, as Michaelis put it, “Hard to win with pocket threes on that flop.”
