Jorge Gomez Wins Last Hand Before the Color Up
Oct 22, '15
There was around 35,000 in the pot and the board read J106J, Jorge Gomez bet 15,000 from under the gun and the player on his direct left clicked it back to 30,000. Gomez thought for a minute, then announced he was all in, having the other player’s remaining 80,000 or so covered.
Gomez stands from his seat as other players at his table headed out for the latest break. His opponent was baffled by the shove and told him, “I have no idea what can beat me.” He stood up too and continued to prod Gomez for information.
“I think you have ace-king of spades,” he told Gomez. He sat back down, counted his stack, and eventually folded. Then, Gomez showed him his hand, AJ, for trip jacks with an ace kicker.
Jorge Gomez – 244,000

Jorge Gomez Holds Up
Oct 22, '15
Jorge Gomez checked the K105 flop, then his opponent bet from middle position. Gomez check-raised to 11,000 total and his opponent called.
The turn was the 2 and Gomez moved all in for around 15,000. The other player thought for around 15 seconds before he called all-in for his tournament life.
Gomez held AK for top pair, top kicker. His opponent had KJ for a pair of kings with an inferior kicker.
The river was a blank, eliminating the other player and sending Gomez’s stack soaring.
Jorge Gomez – 60,000
