In the latest episode of No Gamble, No Future, aired Tuesday evenings at 8:00pm ET exclusively on PokerGO, a thrilling high-stakes hand unfolded at the table. The game in question was a $100/$200 streets game, with a star-studded lineup that included Antonio Esfandiari, Phil Laak, Matt Hanks, Eric Hicks, Rania Nasreddine, Vinny Lingham, and Josh Greenly.
The hand in question began when Josh Greenly raised to $7,000 from the straddle, holding pocket aces. Matt Hanks, who was in the small blind with pocket eights, called the raise, along with Rania Nasreddine, Phil Laak, and others.
As the action moved to the flop, the pot sat at a substantial $58,400. Eric Hicks, who had pocket kings, bet $20,000 into the pot, prompting Greenly to move all-in. Hanks, who had been following the action, overbet all-in for $118,000, a move that Hicks called.
Both players agreed to run two rivers, but Hicks failed to improve on either card. Hanks' eight-eight held up, and he dragging in a massive $318,500 pot.
The hand took a dramatic turn when Hicks, having considered his options, decided to put the money in. Matt Hanks, recognising the potential for a significant pot, stopped the dealer from mucking his cards.
Prior to this hand, Hanks had initiated a $400 straddle, which was raised by Eric Hicks to $2,000. The game had over a million dollars on the table at the start of the episode.
