Winning big pots is like riding a bike for Garrett Adelstein.

One year out of the game, but you'd never know it, with Adelstein stacking Han on just his second hand in 12 months. He folded the first preflop but hit paydirt on the second when he called a three-bet from Han with . Han had and the flop was dangerous.

David – the spare wheel in the hand with – check-raised Han's $4,300 flop bet to $20,000, only to see Han go all-in over the top, and Adelstein make the call.

David got out of the way, the turn was safe for Han, but the river saw Adelstein come out on top and rake in the $137,900 pot. Easy game.

Golden handshake

Phil Laak hadn't even sat down in the game. He turned up halfway through the hand and shook hands with Adelstein shortly before he raked the monster pot.

The $100/$200/$200 game is going on live now, and the monster stack in front of Adelstein ($281,100) is guaranteed to make for an action game.
