Gheba Doubles Through Hart
Daniyal Gheba raised 400,000 with K♥9♥. Action folded to Brent Hart in the big blind, and he defended with Q♣9♣.
Then, the situation became rather spicy.
The dealer fanned K♣6♣9♦ on the flop, giving Hart middle pair and four to the flush. Gheba had flopped top two pair.
Hart checked, Gheba bet 550,000, and Hart called.
The turn produced Q♦, giving Hart two pair, which was inferior to Gheba’s hand. Hart once again checked, and Gheba fired out a 700,000 bet. Hart almost beat Gheba into the pot by announcing an all-in bet, which covered Gheba’s stack.
Gheba went in the tank, contemplating his next move. After moments elapsed, Gheba put his tournament life on the life with a call.
Hart needed any queen or a club to show up, but the 2♦ on the river sent the massive 8,850,000 pot to Gheba and placed a large dent in Hart’s chip stack.
