Distenfeld Sinks Smaller Boat

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Gershon Distenfeld
Gershon Distenfeld

On a three-way flop of {6-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}, the big blind checked and the late position player bet the pot of 28,000. Gershon Distenfeld was on the button and tried to raise, but failed to put out enough chips so it was ruled as a call. The big blind then called as well, and the three of them saw the {2-Clubs} turn.

The big blind checked again, and the late position went all in for his last 3,000 in chips, but then Distenfeld bet the full pot of ~75,000, producing a fold from the big blind.

"You got eights full don't you? " Distenfefl's opponent asked as he showed {6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}

Distenfeld replied by flipping over his hand {q-Spades}{8-Clubs}{8-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for indeed a bigger boat of eights full of deuces.

The river was a meaningless {k-Diamonds} and Distnefel won the pot and eliminated his opponent.
