Gonzalez Runs Into a Full House

David Salituro

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

"This is a big pot," Drew "BetOnDrew" Gonzalez said as he was faced with a bet of 8,600 from Richard Hasnip on a board of 5♠6♦Q♦Q♣5♥ and around 30,000 already in the middle.

"I'm going to need a little more. I'm almost there," Gonzalez said as several minutes went off the clock. He eventually removed his Yoda card protector, looked back at his cards, then slammed in a call.

Hasnip showed him 6♣6♥ for a full house and Gonzalez mucked, seeing nearly half his stack slid across the table.

Vincent Iannuzzi and Shyam Ravindran are both seated at this table in the record-setting Main Event, both having also played in 2006. "I think it's a cool story," Iannuzzi said.

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Aram Oganyan raised 500 in the hijack and Paul Brar called next to act before Michael Pepe did the same on the button.

The dealer fanned a flop of K♣8♦6♣ and all three players checked to see the 8♣ on the turn.

Oganyan checked to Brar who dropped a bet of 1,000 across the line, and both Pepe and Oganyan called.

When the 7♥ completed the board, all three players tapped the table. Oganyan was first to show and tabled A♠8♥ for trip eights.

"Wow, you just turned trips like that eh!" Joked Brar as he mucked his hand.

Pepe also mucked and Oganyan dragged the pot.

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Stephen Song bet 800 on a heads-up flop of Q♣Q♠2♣ and Vincent Ciarrocchi made the call to see the 2♠ appear on the turn.

Song continued for 4,000 and once again Vince Ciarrocchi decided to come along and they went to the river 3♠. Song fired again for 6,000 but this time CIarrochi decided he'd had enough and folded K♣K♥ face up.

"Yeah, I think you got it," he said to Song.

"Yeah, I had it, I was just trying to milk everything I could! Sick fold!" Song replied.
