"Indian Poker Wizard" Deevara Shows Off a River Trick
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
In a five-way pot, action on the 9?6?4? flop was checked through before Rahul Deevara bet 4,300 from the cutoff on the 3? turn.
Abdullah Al-Shanti then raised to 11,000 on the button as the table folded fold to Deevara, who moved all in for 38,000. Al-Shanti called with 7?5? for a turned straight, while Deevara had 6?6? for a set.
Deevara needed to fill up on the river to survive, and the dealer flipped over the 3? to complete his full house and earn Deevara a double up.
"The Indian poker wizard," Deevara said.
