Cooler Of The Highest Order – May 10th
During a mid-stakes $10/$20/$40 game on Hustler Casino Live on May 5th 2023, there was an interesting hand between Nick L and Francisco.
Following the limpers, Zeo, UTG+2 with 5♥️5♣️ opened the pot to $400. Francisco at High-Jack with 9♠️9♦️ and $22,570 in his stack, called. Next up was Nick in the Cut-Off position with $12,270 in his stack and 3♠️3♣️ in hand. He decided to make a 3-bet of $2,000. The limpers folded and so did Zeo, making it heads-up between Francisco and Nick. Francisco decided to just call and they went to the flop with a pot of $4,790.
Cooler Of The Highest Order: The Dream Flop
A miraculous flop of 9♣️3♥️9♥️ hit the board, giving Francisco the absolute nuts with quads and Nick the full-house. Francisco went for the slow play and just checked once again, while Nick made another $2,000 bet, which Francisco called and they went to the turn with the pot at $8,790.
The 6♣️ came on the turn, a dead draw for Nick. Once again Francisco just checked, while Nick placed another bet, this time $3,000. Francisco tanked for a short while but made the call and they went to the river with a $14,790 pot.
Another dead draw for Nick on the river after the 6♦️ came down. Francisco, to the surprise of the commentators, just checked, again. With $5,270 left in his stack, Nick went all-in and had his heart broken moments later at the showdown.
