Bronshtein and Weinberger Chop Big Pot

Stud 8

When we arrived at Table 447, Yuval Bronshtein, Joseph Weinberger and Desmond Portano were committing five bets during the first round of betting. By the hand of the hand, here's what the board cards looked like.

Yuval Bronshtein: {x-}{x-} / {9-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{5-Clubs} / {x-}
Joseph Weinberger: {x-}{x-} / {3-Hearts}{7-Spades}{j-Spades}{3-Clubs} / {x-}
Desmond Portano: {x-}{x-} / {5-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} / {x-}

Fourth street saw Bronshtein lead and both his opponents call.On fifth street, Bronshtein led, Portano committed the last of his chips with a raise (6,200 total) and Weinberger called. Bronshtein then raised it up and Weinberger again called. On sixth, Bronshtein led and Weinberger called.

The final card saw Weinberger check and say, "i have a low," before Brenshtein had a chance to act. Bronshtein ended up checking behind and tabled {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} for three nines (they were rolled up). Weinberger's {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} was good for the low and Portano tabled {a-Hearts}{2-Spades}{q-Clubs}- not enough to save himself.
