Gwinner Risks his Main Event with Massive Call
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
With almost 600,000 in the middle, the board read A?8?5?10?7?. Herik Gwinner had already checked and was faced with a bet of 335,000 from Kyriakos Papadopoulos.
Gwinner went in the tank for about four minutes before the floor was called for a clock. About 10 seconds of his allotted 30 seconds went by before he flicked in one chip to call off his stack of 332,000.
Papadopoulos tabled K?9? and Gwinner jumped with joy as he showed Q?Q? to drag the pot and remain in the 2023 World Series of Poker Main Event.
