Less than an hour after Jeff Fielder doubled thru Magide Kerzazi, Kerzazi raises UTG+1 to 3,000, Fielder calls from the hijack, and the big blind also calls.
The flop comes , the big blind checks, and Kerzazi bets 5,000. Fielder calls, and the big blind folds.
The turn card is the , Kerzazi checks, Fielder bets 8,000, and Kerzazi calls.
The river card is the , Kerzazi checks, Fielder moves all in for 37,700, and Kerzazi goes into the tank for a very long time — several minutes.
Eventually, Kerzazi calls, and Fielder quickly turns over for the nuts — a rivered nine-high straight.
Kerzazi is stunned, and just stares at Fielder’s cards and the board for about 10 seconds as he thinks about the hand. Eventually, Kerzazi mucks without showing his cards, and Fielder wins the pot.
Jeff Fielder – 112,200 (94 bb)
Magide Kerzazi – 35,000 (29 bb)
