Vinny Pahuja Successfuly Pulls The "Stand-Up" Trick

Dec 16, 2023

Vinny Pahuja gets all but 9,000 into the middle preflop on the button against Taylor Black, who’s in middle position.

The rest goes in on a Diamond QSpade 8Club 4 flop, and Pahuja shows an unimproved Club AHeart K. Black has Heart JClub J and is ahead with his pair of jacks.

Pahuja stands up to sweat the final two cards of the runout, a no-good Spade 7, followed by the Spade K. He makes top pair, top kicker on the river and improves beyond Black’s jacks to double and stay alive.

Vinny Pahuja – 640,000 (64 bb)
Taylor Black – 585,000 (58 bb)
