Geatreau's Straight Flush Helps Burst the Bubble
Level 14
: 1,500/3,000, 400 ante
We didn't catch the hand until the end, but Pierre Gaureau relayed to us what was the biggest pot of the tournament thus far — by far.
On a flop of Peter Raimondi led out for 12,000 and Geatreau called to see the on the turn. Raimondi led again, this time for 17,000, and Geatreau called. The river was the and Raimondi bet 70,000. Geatreau moved all in and Raimondi snap called, saying he had the nuts with for a full house.
But he didn't have the nuts — Geatreau tabled the for a straight flush to win a massive pot and send Raimondi to the rail just short of the money.
The money bubble burst at the other table moments later, and the remaining 15 players are guaranteed $360.
