Gottlieb Scores a Knockout While Almost Tripling Up
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
A player in early position raised to 16,000 preflop. The player in middle position then reraised all in for 68,000. Tom Gottlieb, the hijack, four-bet all in for 116,000. The player in early position called, having both of his opponents covered.
Middle Position: K?Q?
Tom Gottlieb: A?K?
Early Position: A?Q?
Gottlieb was ahead, and remained so on the 2?10?9? flop. The K? turn gave him a pair, and he faded his opponents' outs to a straight on the 10? river, eliminating a player while seeing a lot of new chips coming his way.
