Dubau’s “Gut Feeling” Pays Off with a Lucky River!
Level 14: 2000/5000 (5000)
Entries: 124/508
Kieran Collins opened the pot, only to face a 3-bet to 25,000 from button player Marvin Dubau. Collins made the call, and the flop came 8♣J♥9♣. After Collins checked, Dubau bet 10,000, which Collins quickly raised to 40,000. Without hesitation, Dubau snap-shoved for 182,500 – call, and both went to a showdown:
- Marvin Dubau: 10♥4♥ (open-ended straight draw)
- Kieran Collins: J♠J♦ (set of jacks)
Dubau chuckled, “I don’t know why I did that,” as the dealer turned the 5♣. Then, the river 7♦ completed Dubau’s straight, prompting him to shout, “It’s coming! That’s why I’m doing it!”
Meanwhile, Collins was left reeling, shaken by the tough beat that his set of jacks cost him.
Kieran Collins – 40,000
Marvin Dubau – 430,000
