"I'm a Gangster!" Givens Bets Huge on the River

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Will Givens bet 75,000 from the hijack on a flop of 10♥10♣2♥ and Sam Snead called in the big blind, as did Truong Nguyen in middle position.

"Wasn't expecting you," Givens said to Nguyen heading to the J♦ turn, where he bet another 300,000. Snead folded this time, but Nguyen stuck around and called to see the 6♥ river.

Givens then splashed in 1,000,000, and Nguyen quickly folded. Givens turned over A♥K♥ as he took the pot.

"That river doesn't come, I call you," Nguyen told him.

"What did you have? You won't even tell me what you had," Givens replied.

"It's common sense what I had. Why didn't you raise me preflop?" Nguyen added.

"Because I'm a gangster. Everyone loves me because I bring good energy," Givens said.

The flop rolled out A♥8♠3♦ and action checked through to the turn J♦ where Rabinowitz checked to George who bet 80,000 to see only Sharma call.

George bet 250,000 on the river 2♠ to see Sharma fold.

Kenneth Asher raised from the cutoff and just behind him, Aaron Kupin shoved on the button for his last 300,000. Action folded back to Asher, who quickly called having Kupin covered.

Aaron Kupin: K♣Q♣All in
Kenneth Asher: A♥Q♠

It was unfortuante timing for Kupin, who found himself dominated by Asher's ace-queen.

The 9♥4♣7♣ flop gave Kupin a sweat with a flush draw, but the 2♠ turn and 8♥ river bricked out to award Asher the knockout.

Aaron Pinson: A♠Q♣

Will Givens opened to 75,000 from under the gun and action folded around to Loai Elayday in the big blind who defended.

The A♠Q♣5♣ flop saw Elayday check, Givens bet 75,000 and Elayday snap call.

A A♦ turn was instantly bet by Givens for 75,000 after Elayday checked. Elayday made another snap call.

The 4♥ river slowed the action slightly, with Givens pausing before betting 200,000. Elayday took some time to make his decision. Givens said "I know you've got king-queen..." He continued with "I would never bluff you... I would never bluff you!"

Elayday mucked his hand and the pot was passed to Givens.

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Three-way to the 6♥4♣10♦ flop, it checked to Terry Ketterer in the cutoff. He bet 75,000, which big blind Wellington Araujo raised to 210,000. Daniel Iachan then three-bet to 345,000 in early position. Kettere folded before Araujo called.

The remaining duo then checked through the 5♣ turn, revealing the 2♦ as the river. Araujo moved all in for 575,000.

"Wellington, Wellington," Iachan began. He then tanked for a while before he gave up on the pot with a fold.

"Show an eight or a nine," Iachan requested. Araujo then allowed his opponent to open one of his cards, and Iachan tabled the 8♠ for all to see.

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Kenneth Asher raised to 60,000 first to act and Artur Martirosian defended his big blind.

Martirosian checked to Asher, who continued for 40,000 on the 2♠J♠5♠ flop. Martirosian then check-raised to 130,000 and Asher called.

Both players checked on the 10♦ turn, but Martirosian led out for 175,000 after the Q♦ filled the river.

Asher took his time and then put a raise of a bit over 500,000 into the middle, which was met with a snap-fold from Martirosian.

With around 160,000 already in the pot, Gregory Brown checked from the big blind on the monotone 9♠10♠Q♠ flop, and Lauri Saaskilahti fired 55,000 from the button. Brown check-raised to 200,000, and Saaskilahti called.

The 5♣ landed on the turn, and Brown continued for 275,000. Saaskilahti stuck around with another call.

The J♥ completed the board, and Brown unloaded one final barrel of 675,000. Saaskilahti tank-called, only to be shown K♠6♠ for a flush by Brown.
