Allen Tangles with Champ Gerhart
Level 7
Kevin Gerhart: XxXx/6x3x8x8x/Xx
Joshua Allen: XxXx/6xQx4x2x/Xx
Picking the action up on third street, Allen completed, Gerhart raised and Allen called. Allen bet on fourth when Gerhart spiked a queen to Allen's three, and again on fifth. Gerhart took control on sixth. As Allen pondered his decision on seventh, Gerhart said, "You paired your three. I almost raised you on fifth." With this information, both players checked.
Gerhart turned over a 96. Allen laughed and said, "Actually I paired my queen," and folded. "I guess if you're going to lose a hand, you might as well do it to a four-time bracelet winner, and the 2019 winner of this event."
