Oral Scoops Monster Pot
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Picking the action up on a board of 9♣2♠A♣10♠, Ian Gascoigne put out a bet of 35,000 in the cutoff and was called by Thomas Holmer on the button. Ismet Oral then produced a check-raise to 123,000.
Gascoigne called, but Holmer put the squeeze on by four-betting all in for about 560,000, covering both players. Oral quickly called off for his remaining 119,000 and Gascoigne quickly folded.
Ismet Oral: A♦9♦
Thomas Holmer: A♠8♠
Oral was in good shape with two pair against Holmer's top pair, but Holmer had outs with his flush draw.
However the 5♥ completed the board and sent a 649,000 pot to Oral, with Holmer left with 250,000.
