Guerin Flops Set To Eliminate Opponent
The action was picked up when a player in middle position slid out 305,000, leaving only 20,000 behind. Sasha Guerin made the call next to act and the rest of the table got out of the way.
The dealer fanned out a flop of K♣Q♥7♥ and the middle position player checked to Guerin who put in enough chips to cover the opponents remaining stack.
The middle position player went deep in the tank to sweat the upcoming pay jump, but after over a minute, the table called the clock and the floor was called over. As the 30 second clock ticked down, the middle position player put in their remaining chips and the cards were on their backs.
Middle Position: A♥K♥
Sasha Guerin: Q♠Q♦
Both players flopped the world, but Guerin was well in the lead with his set of queens. The board ran out 7♠J♣ and the queens held up to score the pot for Guerin and send his opponent to the rail.
