Almagableh Makes a Straight to Send Out Bunch
Level 17
: 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Jared Bleznick under the gun and Abdul Almagableh in the small blind limped before John Bunch checked his option.
The dealer fanned a flop of J♥8♥3♣, and Almagableh checked to Bunch who fired 11,000. Bleznick quickly folded and Almagableh put in the maximum raise of 57,000. Bunch called.
When the 10♣ hit the turn, Almagableh continued for 75,000 and Bunch stuck around with a call.
The Q♣ completed the board on the river and Almagableh dropped a stack of reds across the line. Bunch called off his stack of about 20,000 to see the K♦K♥9♥6♠ of Almagableh. Bunch rolled his hand over but the dealer mucked them quickly as he waited for his payout tag.
