Bronshtein vs. The Choirboy

[user46298]
[user46298]
Gary Jones and Yuval Bronshtein have kind of taken over the Stud/8 round, playing just each other in hefty pots. Firstly, point to The Choirboy as he bets Bronshtein off holding (X-X) {A-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{4-Spades} (his opponent folding (X-X) {J-Spades}{K-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}).

Then an admittedly larger pot changed hands the other way, as Yuval Bronshtein bet hard on sixth street with their hands looking like:

Bronshtein: (X-X) {J-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Jones: (X-X) {Q-Hearts}{5-Spades}{7-Spades}{K-Spades}

Yuval Bronshtein checked in the dark as the river came to each of them, and Gary Jones checked behind, wearily announcing, "Two pair." Unsurprisingly more perky, Bronshtein responded, "Full house," revealing the {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs} lurking in his hand.

Gary Jones rearranged his 47K stack, looking weedy in comparison to Bronshtein's towers, and his expression set Yuval off into a concise sum-up of what his opponent could be thinking: "You're good; I'm bad. I'm lucky; you're not." It was all with a smile, though.
