Brooks Takes a Huge Pot

There was four way action on third between Alexander Kostritsyn, Erik Seidel, Fu Wong, and Eric Brooks. Brooks completed showing the {K-Spades} , Kostritsyn raised showing the {9-Hearts} . Seidel called showing the {3-Clubs} and Wong made the call showing the {5-Diamonds} . On fourth, Brooks caught the {3-Hearts} , Seidel caught the {2-Hearts} , Wong the {7-Hearts} , and Kostritsyn the {8-Clubs}. Brooks checked, Kostritsyn bet, Seidel and Wong called, and then Brooks check-raised. Kostritsyn then proceeded to three-bet the hand and Seidel and Wong get out of the way.

Brooks bet both fifth and sixth street and Kostritsyn called him down. On the river, Brooks bet out showing a board of {K-Spades} {3-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {5-Spades}. Kostritsyn made the call showing a board of {9-Hearts} {8-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} {5-Spades}. Brooks flipped over {K-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} for kings full. Kostritsyn flashed a {Q-?} {9-?} and folded.

After the hand Minh Ly said, "Queen nine? You call him with queen nine?"

Eric Brooks is now up to around 950,000 chips.
