Gothey Gets the Chips of Van Huyssteen
Level 6
: 400/800, 800 ante
Three ways to the 8♣7♥3♠ flop, Lauren Piha checked and Muzamil Gothey bet 5,500 into around 8,000 out of the hijack. Braam van Huyssteen then raised to 15,500 on the button and Piha folded, Gothey called. Both checked the 6♠ turn and Gothey also checked the K♠ on the river.
Van Huyssteen now jammed and the Tanzanian asked for a count. The shove was for 27,100 and Gothey called within fifteen seconds. He was shown the 6♣5♣ for a busted straight draw on the flop that had turned a pair of sixes. Gothey had that beat with the Q♦Q♣ and earned a healthy boost to his stack.
