Brabin Has It

Luke Brabin has had a big year. Most recently he won the $1,100 Accumulator Event at the WSOP APAC. He was also the runner-up in the ANZ Player of the Year race in 2013.

He’s started strongly at APPT Auckland too.

We picked up the action of a recent hand on the river of a board.

There was around 9,000 in the pot and Brabin’s one opponent checked it over to him. Brabin then moved all in for 10,300. This sent his opponent into the tank. The player thought for a long time. It looked like it was going to be a fold, with the cards moving forward.

But then at the last second the player jammed out the chips and announced the call.

Then Brabin showed for a full house and scooped the pot, leaving one player crippled and seeing himself move up to just a little under 30,000.
