Oh noooooo.
This is so extremely brutal given how close the players at the 2019 World Series of Poker Main Event are to the end.
Timothy Su will start Friday’s action third in chip count with 34,350,000 thanks to this stunner of a win over Sam Greenwood, who finished in 45th.
The video below starts at the flop — Greenwood has pocket Aces and Su has 10-9 offsuit. The flop is Jack-Queen-4, giving Su two ways to get a straight with either a King or an 8.
Greenwood bets 1.8 million of his 15M-plus chips and Su calls. The turn is another Jack and Greenwood bets 3.5M this time. I would assume he bet pre-flop, so Su might know he has pocket Aces by this point. But he shoves all in anyway, knowing he has over 29 million in chips, a risky but smart move given his stack.
Guess what shows up on the river? Watch below:
Brutal. Just so very brutal. Su hits his straight with a King and Greenwood goes home.
