Hand #23 - Mike Glasser

Thanh Dat Tran has the button in Seat 9. Mike Glasser moves all in for 65,000 from early position. Curtis Early announces a reraise and moves 200,000 into the center. Action folds around to Eric Beren in the small blind and he goes into the tank. Glasser stands up with water bottle in hand eagerly awaiting his fate. Beren eventually calls and Glasser is all in for the main pot and Beren and Early will have action on the side.

The flop comes {J-Hearts} {10-Hearts} {10-Spades}. Beren checks and Early bets 300,000 into the dry side pot. Beren double-checks his hand and throws it away. With action complete, the players show:

Glasser: {J-Diamonds} {J-Hearts}
Early: {9-Hearts} {9-Spades}

Early is drawing to running nines for four of a kind. The turn and river come the {3-Hearts} and {K-Spades} respectively and Mike Glasser triples up to 285,000 chips.

He pushes out the call and then an additional 200,000 chips. Early sits as still as a statue, surveying the situation. With his eyes hidden by sunglasses and his arms lightly crossed, he eventually flicks his cards into the muck. David Woo wins the pot.
