Gardner's Stack Grows
Julian Gardner made it 55,000 under the gun, and Ran Azor called from the cutoff. The flop came . Gardner potted for 134,000, and Azor raised. Gardner only had another 33,000 to his name, and he tossed that in.
Gardner: for an overpair
Azor: for bottom pair, a gutshot, and a backdoor flushdraw
The turn and river bricked for Azor, and Gardner's kings were enough to give him a massive double up to 455,000. Azor looked unfazed as he dropped to 525,000 and Gardner's fans went nuts on the rail.
