Ace High For Nozomu
Level 6
: Limits 1,000/2,000, 0 ante
Quite new in the field, Shimizu Nozomu raised it up from under the gun and was only called by Moshe Gavrieli in the small blind.
On the flop 8?Q?5?, Nozomu continued betting. But Gavrieli didn't give up. Then, the 9? came on the turn, but the action slowed down at this point as both players checked.
And when the river 4? appeared on the table, Gavrieli took the lead. Nozomu waited a few seconds to check his cards and think about his decision, and called with A?K?.
Gavrieli had 10?7? for a missed straight draw and left the pot to Nozomu, who is looking for a third WSOP final table this summer.
