Brar On Fire

Level 24 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Jaspal Brar
Jaspal Brar

Jaspal Brar opened to 60,000 on the button and Francisco Benitez defended out of the big blind.

Benitez checked on a flop of {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} and then called when Brar continued for 30,000.

Action checked through the {8-Diamonds} turn to the {7-Clubs} river where action again went check-check. Brar showed down {a-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}, good enough to scoop the pot.

The very next hand a player in early position opened to 350,000, leaving himself just 40,000 behind. Brar in the cutoff re-shoved only to see the button player call off. The blinds got out of the way and the initial raiser made the call to setup a three-way all in.

Early Position Player: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Button Player: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Jaspal Brar: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

The early position player and the button were essentially involved in a flip with Brar needing a lot of help to win the pot. The {q-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop immediately propelled the early position player into a huge lead with nothing changing on the {q-Hearts} turn. Brar found a miracle, however, nailing the {9-Spades} on the river to take down an enormous, in the process eliminating both of his opponents.
