Big Stacks Collide Between DeGuzman and Briggs
Level 13
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Abe DeGuzman opened to 10,000 and was then three-bet by Michael Briggs to 43,000.
When the action folded back to DeGuzman, he thought about it for a few seconds before he made the call.
On the flop of 4♦4♠2♣, Briggs continued for 55,000, which DeGuzman called and the two continued to the turn A♥.
Both players then decided to slow down as the action went check-check, and they saw the river fall the 6♠. The action checked through once more and Briggs tabled 10♠10♦, but it was no good as DeGuzman had him the whole way with Q♠Q♣.
DeGuzman was then shipped the substantial pot of close to 200,000 to bring his stack to over 400,000.
