Gary Tighe Cripples Paul Wasicka

Mar 19, 2009

Gary Tighe raises preflop, and Paul Wasicka calls from one of the blinds. The flop comes [10c8s3h], Wasicka checks, Tighe bets 20,000, and Wasicka calls. 

 

The turn card is the [Qh], Wasicka checks, and Tighe rolls a die, getting a "1." Tighe says, "I’ve been getting a lot of ones lately." He bets 100,000, and Wasicka moves all in. Tighe immediately calls with [AcAh], and Wasicka shows [Jh8h] for a pair of eights with a gutshot straight draw and a flush draw. 

 

The river card is the [Qd], and Gary Tighe wins the pot with two pair, aces and queens. Paul Wasicka is crippled. 

Gary Tighe  –  550,000
Paul Wasicka  –  9,500
