Garman Rides Big Action to a Big Pot
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
The player under the gun raised to 5,000 and the middle position player and the big blind, Christopher Garman, both came along for the ride.
The flop showed 8?10?6? and that's when everything went wild.
Garman checked, under-the-gun bet 8,000, the middle position player shoved all of his chips in for about 33,000 and Garman re-shoved with the bigger stack, getting the player under-the-gun player to fold.
Middle position: A?5? for a nut-flush draw.
Christopher Garman: 10?9? for top pair with a gutshot possibility.
Garman beckoned "no diamonds!" The dealer did not oblige and delivered the 8? on the turn. But that card did pair the board, and when the river came the 10?, Garman was back on top with a pot-scooping full house.
