Ledesma Puts His Stack to Work
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Manuel Ledesma raised to 4,500 under the gun and was called by Bryan Taylor in the hijack and Iason Filippidis in the cutoff. "FK" then moved all in for 30,000 and Ledesma shoved forward a tower of red 5,000 chips, enough to put his other two opponents all in. Taylor tanked for a minute before folding, while Filippidis quickly got out of the way.
"FK": 7♣6♣ 
Manuel Ledesma: A♠J♣
Ledesma had to fade a straight draw going to the river as the board came Q♥Q♠3♣4♦, while the 9♣ fell on the river and Ledesma's ace-high stayed in the lead to earn last year's 888poker Live Madrid champion the knockout
