Bunch Puts Farha to the Test
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Charles Witherspoon under the gun, Qinghai Pan in early position, John Bunch on the button, and Matt Vengrin in the small blind all limp called the blind. The Big blind Sammy Farha checked his option.
The flop came A♣2♠6♥ and Vengrin bet 25,000 which every player in the pot called.
After the 9♦ on the turn, action checked to the button Bunch, who bet out 200,000. The only player to call and see a river was Farha.
The river was the A♥ and after Farha checked to Bunch, he bet the pot for 645,000. Farah snap-called the bet, and Bunch tabled A♠Q♣10♣9♠6♦ for a full house, aces full of nines, but no low. Farha showed J♥8♠8♣4♥3♣ for the nut low, and the players chopped up a huge pot.
