Pienaar Adds To his Growing Tower
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
The multi-way flop of 9?6?4? was checked before Yogesh Jeebaun bet the 6? turn for 11,000 in the small blind. It folded to Keenan Pienaar and he raised to 33,000 for Jeebaun to call.
Jeebaun then check-folded the A? river to a bet of around 50,000.
Soon after, Gilbert Tin Fook raise-folded to the shove of Rudolf Fourie.
"Just ask him what my hand is," Fourie told Tin Fook after the latter had exposed the Q?10?. He referred to Harold Brooks, who instantly said "ace king," which was exactly what Fourie showed by revealing A?K?.
Shortly after, Pienaar chipped up even further when he got some value out of Divan Vyn Wyk on a board of K?10?8?J?A?. His Q?9? was the nuts with a queen-high straight flush and Van Wyk mucked the K?10?.
