Gerhart Makes Tough Call

Tyler Foran

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Five players saw the flop of 8?6?5?, and a player bet out 1,000 before Kevin Gerhart raised to 3,000. There was a call behind him and the original bettor mucked his hand.

When the 2? landed on the turn Gerhart bet 7,500, which was called by his opponent.

The 7? completed the board on the river, and Gerhart continued for 10,000. His opponent moved all-in for 46,000, putting Gerhart in the tank for a couple of minutes.

Eventually, Gerhart made the call, and his opponent tabled 8?7? for two pair which was no good against Gerhart's 8?8?.
