Gordon Swings Back
Level 36
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 300,000 ante
Simeon Spasov opened to 1,200,000 with 8?8? and John Henry Gordon called Q?J? to see a flop of 9?K?3?.
Gordon checked, Sasov bet 800,000 with his eights, and Gordon called with his queen-high.
And just like that, Gordon drilled to the 10? on the turn for the nut straight and checked it over to Spasov, who checked back.
Unfortunately for Spasov, the river 8? gave him a set and he raised it up to 8,500,000 after a bet of 3,000,000 from Gordon.
Gordon then responded by moving all in for 18,000,000 and Spasov begrudgingly folded his set to award the large pot to Gordon.
