Jennifer Tilly $649,000
Andrew Robl $539,000
Sameh Elamawy $468,000
Brandon Steven $326,000
Andrew Pacheco $132,000
Masato Yokosawa $124,000
Bo Brownstein $116,000

Gavri Doubles in First Hand with Quads

Justin GavriIn the first hand of the episode, there was an $800 straddle when Justin Gavri raised to $3,500 from the button with the 5*♠5. Brandon Steven called from the big blind with the 22, Sameh Elamawy did the same from the. Straddle with the J4, and it was three-way action to a flop of K23♠*.

Two checks saw Gavri continued for $3,000, Steven just called with bottom set, and Elamawy folded. The 5*♦* turn saw Steven check, Gavri bet $11,000, and Steven check-raised to $29,000. Gavri called and made quads when the 5*♣* appeared on the river.

Steven moved all in and Gavri snap-called off his last $39,000 to win the pot and double to $153,600.

Steven Sets Up Pacheco

Brandon StevenSteven raised to $5,000 holding the 3*♥3♣* and Andrew Pacheco defended the big blind with the 10*♠6. Pacheco check-called a bet of $7,000 on the J36♥* and then checked for a second time on the 4*♥* turn.

Steven bet $20,000 with bottom set and Pacheco thought for a bit with his middle pair before calling. The Q*♠* river saw Pacheco check for a third time and he hit the tank after Steven bet $47,000. Eventually, Pacheco called off about half his remaining stack and watched the $159,900 pot pushed to Steven.

Tilly Stacks Pacheco

Andrew PachecoSteven raised to $3,000 with the A*♣6♣* and Tilly called with the 5*♠4. Pacheco came along from the big blind with the K10♦* and it was three-way action to a flop of 5*♣9K♥*. Two checks saw Tilly bet $5,000 with bottom pair, Pacheco called, and Steven got out of the way.

The 4*♣* turn gave Tilly the lead and she bet $8,000 after Pacheco checked. The latter then check-raised to $23,000 and called off his remaining $21,000 after Tilly moved all in. The duo agreed to run it twice on the $107,700 pot but Pacheco came up empty when the 2*♦* appeared on the first run followed by the 3*♣* on the second.

Elamawy vs. Robl for Nearly Seven Figures

Sameh ElamawyRobl raised to $2,000 on the button with the K*♠K♣* and Steven called from the small blind with the J*♥10. Elamawy then three-bet to $10,4000 from the big with the AK♥*, Robl four-bet to $35,000, and Steven folded. Elamawy then five-bet to $150,000 before Robl six-bet shoved all in with the covering stack. Elamawy called off for $489,000 total and just like that there was a $981,300 pot on the line.

The two agreed to run it twice and the first flop came Q*♦9A♥* to pair Elamawy. Neither the 7*♠* turn nor 8*♦* river changed a thing and Elamawy locked up half the pot. On the second, another ace appeared in the window when the flop fell 6*♥7A. The 3♠* turn left Robl needing the case king on the river (the other had been folded preflop), but it was not meant to be as the 4*♣* peeled off.

Elamawy cracked kings twice to win one of the biggest pots in High Stakes Poker history. After the hand, Robl was left with just $62,700 while Elamawy chipped up to nearly a million-dollar stack.

Bustout in Final Hand

Bo BrownsteinIn the last hand of the episode, Bo Brownstein opened for $4,000 with the Q*♠J♠* and Tilly called with the K*♥6. Masato Yokosawa came along form the button with the A2♦* before Gavri three-bet to $26,000 with the A*♠Q♣* in the small blind.

Only Brownstein called and both players flopped top pair on the 9*♥5Q♥* flop. Gavri continued for $18,000 and then quickly called when Brownstein raised all in for $53,500. They agreed to run it twice on the $170,300 pot and Gavri held on the first run when it came the 7*♦* turn and A*♥* river. On the second, the K*♦* turn and 3*♦* river both missed Brownstein and he was felted in the final hand of Episode 5.
