"It's a Cooler!"
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Tommaso Briotti opened to 5,000 in the hijack and Samy Boujmala three-bet to 15,000 in the cutoff. Dominik Nitsche four-bet to 40,000 from the small blind and Briotti five-bet jammed all in for 64,500. Boujmala asked for a count but decided to lay his hand down while Nitsche snap-called.
Tommaso Briotti: A?A?
Dominik Nitsche: Q?Q?
The flop came 10?9?5? and Boujmala grumbled as he would have flopped a set. However, the Q? peeled off on the turn and Nitsche took the lead with a set of queens. The K? completed the board and Briotti was ousted.
"It's a cooler!" someone exclaimed at the table as they shrugged their shoulders.
