Higgins Says Au Revoir to Martini; Gorham Leads Deeb
Julien Martini became the latest player to find themselves on the wrong side of the rail after being coolered out by Matthew Higgins.
Higgins quickly recapped the hand to PokerNews.
Martini, on the button, made it 2,500, and Higgins called.
Higgins check-raised to 6,000 over a bet of 1,500 on the 8x4x3x flop, which contained two clubs and a heart. Martini called before the 4♥ turn checked through to the 7♥ river.
Higgins, the bigger stack, moved all in, and Martini quickly called off his last 33,000. Higgins tabled 4x3x for a full house, besting Martini's A♥Q♥, which made a no-good flush on the river.
Also taking place on the same table, is the heads-up duel between Shaun Deeb and James Gorham.
The TeamLucky and 25KFantasy Draft pick has a mountain to climb, as Gorham has more than a 2:1 chip lead.
