Gargiulo on a Heater
The pot stood at 4,300 with two players looking at a full board reading 8?5?3?A?4?.
The big blind checked the action to Joey Gargiulo in the cutoff who bet out for 5,000. The big blind was deep in the tank before finally folding, flashing the 7? as they did so. Gargiulo showed 5?2? for a straight he'd turned into a bluff, folding out the better hand.
The very next hand Gargiulo raised from the hijack to 600, the player in the cutoff three-bet to 1,800 and Gargiulo called.
The flop came Q?2?8? and Gargiulo checked then called a bet of 1,600 from his opponent.
The 10? turn saw a repeat of the action, this time the cutoff sizing up to 3,200.
The river fell the 3? and the hand checked to a showdown. Gargiulo tabled 9?8? for a pair of eights, which was good enough to win a second pot in a row.
