One Hundred Shizzles

With a hi-jack raise to 2,300, William Gottman made the call in the cutoff to see a {8-Clubs}{6-Spades}{8-Hearts} flop fall.

The hi-jack continued for 1,000 and Gottman smooth-called before both players checked the {4-Spades} on the turn. The river of the {6-Clubs} saw the hi-jack fire again; this time for 2,500 as Gottman made the call.

The hi-jack tabled his {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}, but it would be Gottman's {10-Clubs}{10-Spades} that would see him scoop the pot and become the first player into the six-figure club as he now sits with 102,000 in chips.
