Game Changers: Mark and Matt Take Down the Unbeatable Gascard in Week 4 Poker Thriller!

January 25, 2024February 1, 2024

Together again! Mike “Gascard” Collins & Don Dean are playing the league again this season after a few years absence.

Darbie Atkinson visited the East side of Derby substituting for Tom McDonald who was freezing his a** off in Maryland.

Mark Winchell opened 1100, Jason Palacios raised to 2500, Darbie called and Mark called. 2 hearts on the flop and Mark was all in. Jason called with more. Darbie found a fold though she seemed torn. Mark turned over A4hh and Jason AA! Mark turned the flush to double up and stay alive!

After having his aces cracked, Jason was all in multiple times. Finally Evan Vancavage took the CS down.

Joe Battaglia jammed after Mo Maher led out for 3k on the river. Mo snap folded!

Darbie was all in short and ended up with two pair vs Mike Rossi

A big double for Darbie vs Evan!!!

A double through Mike Rossi for Joe Battaglia!

Mark Winchell hit his set when Darbie had a flush draw. Mark held for the knockout!

Dugg>Aaron

Evan’s youthfulness was sent packing by Gascard who is much older

Mark opened 3500, Joe B jammed for less (1200) and Jason Barnett made it 9k. Mark jammed and pushed Jason with KK , who is known for being nitty, out. It was Mark’s AA>Joe’s 44. K on the flop (sorry Jason).

Andra Zachow had just doubled through Mark Winchell when she rivered a flush versus his AK (he had flopped the A).

With a nice stack she then woke up with AA. She opened and Gascard called with 88. He flopped a set on a ♠️♠️♠️ board over Andra’s A♠️A ♣️. He immediately jammed and she called. No more spades and she was out. It was pretty disgusting.
