It's Monday and with that comes another installment of PokerOrg's Hand of the Week. There's no doubt that Corey Eyring's theatrics on The Lodge Livestream deserve an honorable mention, but it's Andrew Robl's $409,600 straight flush scoop on No Gamble, No Future that takes the cake.
Robl returned last week for the show's Season 7 debut. In past appearances, he has wholly embraced the show's title as gospel, unafraid to drive the action and always looking to get more money in the middle – with or without the goods. It came as no surprise then that after losing the first hand of the episode, Robl added $600,000 to his stack and declared war on Darin Feinstein, his adversary in the initial skirmish.
Before he finished stacking his newly-added discs, the next hand was dealt and the war Robl desired was delivered to him in a three-way, all-in confrontation. While he didn't win the entire pot – he and Shawn Madden split Feinstein's money – Robl made it clear he was ready to gamble.
Robl hits... both times
It all started with Justin Gavri's raise to $1,200 with 
. Robl, next to act, responded with a three-bet to $5,000 with 
. In an unorthodox move, Kirk Brown threw in a single $5,000 calling chip with 
– opting not to four-bet in position with his premium holding. When the action folded back around to him, Gavri came along and the three players watched on as the dealer spread the 
flop.
With $16,000 in the middle, Robl fired another $5,000 when checked to and Brown instantly raised to $15,000 with his overpair. Gavri returned his cards to the dealer, but Robl was ready to gamble with his straight, flush, and straight flush draws and moved an entire stack of $25,000 chips across the betting line to put Brown all-in for his $196,800 stack.
Brown deliberated aloud before eventually announcing a call. With $409,600 in the pot, there was talk of a deal from both players, but in the end they simply agreed to run the turn and river two times. On the first runout, the 
changed nothing, but the 
brought the flush home for Robl to earn him half of the pot.
On the second runout, the 
improved Brown to top set and reduced Robl's available outs. With a 77% chance to win the hand, Brown only had to fade nine outs – three of which were already in the muck according to the show's graphics – but the dealer rolled over the 
river to improve Robl to a straight flush and send the entire pot his way.
