Brewer’s Double Up Leaves Table Stunned
With significant chips already in the middle, we picked up the action on the [5d2h3h] flop when Ali Imsirovic bet 50,000 from the small blind. Chris Brewer, seated under the gun, made the call and the turn brought the [6h].
Imsirovic check-called 70,000 on the turn and the river completed the board with the [Js]. Imsirovic checked again and Brewer counted out his stack before betting 195,000, leaving himself with 2,000 behind.
Imsirovic tossed in a time-extension chip before making the call and Brewer flashed [AsQh], assuming he lost.
“That’s good,” Imsirovic said with a wry smile, flashing [AxTx].
Sam Soverel was quick to reference that Brewer had won a similar hand earlier in the event and along with John Riordan and Sean Winter some friendly banter broke out about the hand they had just witnessed.
“Do you fold if he shoves?” Winter joked as even Erik Seidel couldn’t keep a straight face. Imsirovic meanwhile was left with 135,000 while Brewer is the new chip leader with 800,000.
