Event 19 - FInal Table - Insanity In The Rio!
1 year ago
We've just got heads-up in the $1,500 PLO event with Vanessa Selbst and James Pickering contesting for the bracelet and the rail has swelled beyond belief, and must be the loudest final table rail we've seen so far.
Stan-d And Deliver (AKA No More Stan Jokes)
Stanley Statkiewicz has gone out in 3rd place after he raised preflop with Vanessa Selbst calling. The flop came T
8
J
, Vanessa led out for $90,000, before Stanley moved all-in. Vanessa quickly called with A
6

5
, whilst Stanley was in trouble with A
Q
T
8
for top two pair. He failed to house up and left us heads up.
Pickering Goes Mental
James Pickering, who may have had a few beverages, managed to double up with A-J-J-x through Vanessa's A-Q-9-4, before he started gambling like nobody's business. He raised blind, potted the A-Q-3 flop blind, and then when Vanessa called, he bet the turn blind too. Vanessa, who had looked at her cards moved in, and he was forced to take a peak.
He didn't like what he saw, and folded. Vanessa showed Q-T-7-6
See-Saw
Vanessa raised preflop and Pickering called. The flop came out T-8-5, Pickering bet out and Vanessa set him in, he quickly called with A-3-5-5, while she held Q-J-9-4 for a wrap, the turn was another 8 meaning she was drawing dead and the river was an academic 4.
