Jesus Rises

Ferguson now yields a much larger stack thanks to a nice flush
Ferguson now yields a much larger stack thanks to a nice flush
Stud

Chris "Jesus" Ferguson just scooped a massive pot during the latest round of stud on his table. His two opponents in the hand were Jeff Madsen and Al "Sugar Bear" Barbieri. Here's how the boards looked.

Ferguson: (X-X) {10-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {5-Spades} {K-Diamonds} (X)
Madsen: (X-X) {J-Hearts} {K-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} (X)
Barbieri: (X-X) {3-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {5-Hearts} (X)

Barbieri led the betting on fourth after Madsen checked. Ferguson called and then Madsen called as well. On fifth and sixth street, the same action occurred. On seventh, Madsen first checked, then Barbieri checked behind. Ferguson fired a bet and both players called.

Ferguson showed three hearts in the hole with the {8-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {3-Hearts} and both his opponents mucked after not being able to best Ferguson's flush.

Ferguson - 82,000
Barbieri - 70,000
Medsen - 25,000
