"God I Love Poker" - Gwinner's Sick Five-Bet
"Wow," said Gwinner before going into the tank. Both players were deep-stacked, and with over 30,000 in the pot already, it was a tournament make-or-break decision for the T6 Poker representative.
After several minutes of deep thought to build the suspense, Gwinner gathered his stacks of chips together and slid them into the middle in declaration that he was all in! "God I Love Poker!" came the cry from Esfandiari, as the media contingent swarmed the table in anticipation.
This five-bet pre-flop was an additional 55,000 to his opponent and represented the majority of his stack. He thought for a moment, shrugged and reluctantly tossed his cards into the muck.
Gwinner then flipped over his hand - a jaw-dropping - much to the disgust of his opponent and the shock of the rest of the table.
A world-class, and somewhat sick, move by Gwinner has elevated his stack to around 125,000 in chips!
