Ariel Manuel

Harrison Gimbel stack surge is at a new peak as he is now over 1,200,000 thanks to his knockout of Ariel Manuel.

Gimbel opened for a standard raise in the hijack and Manuel called on the button. Gimbel continued for 25,000 on the K♥6♦5♦ flop and Manuel called. Gimbel increased his bet to 100,000 on the 4♠ turn and Manuel shoved for 400,000.

Gimbel called right away with K♠Q♥ for top pair and needed to fade against the draw of Manuel 10♥7♠. The J♣ river kept Gimbel ahead and he scored the bounty and the pot. He is playing 1,290,000 and in control of over one-third of the chips in play.
