Gold Takes Another Monster Pot

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Benjamin Spragg raised to 20,000 and was called by Alan Gold in the cut-off and Damian Porebski in the big blind. The three player saw a flop of {10-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}. Porebski checked, Spragg checked, and Gold seized the initiative with a bet of 155,000. Porebski got out of the way but Spragg made the call.

The dealer burned a card and put out the {5-Diamonds} on the turn. Once more Spragg checked. Gold, relentless so far at this final table, bet 365,000. Spragg made the call. The final card was {3-Hearts}. Spragg checked for the final time. Gold, undeterred bet 950,000.

Before the dealer had a chance to count the bet down Spragg announce call. When Gold turned over his {5-Spades}{4-Spades} for the turned two pair Spragg sighed in dismay flicking his {a-Spades}{k-Clubs} face up.

“I wasn’t folding.” Spragg said as the huge pot was slid over to Gold.
