Palma Calls Down Zhechev to Double
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
"Oh my God, I'm going to get a walk, aren't I?" Nick Palma said as the table folded around to Ivan Zhechev on the button, who then raised to 40,000.
"I could have aces right now, you don't know," Palma said as he called. The flop came K♠7♦6♣ and Zhechev continued for 30,000. Palma called and the A♣ fell on the turn.
Zhechev bet another 140,000 and Palma called once more. The 2♦ came on the river and Zhechev bet enough to put Palma all in. Palma let out a deep breath before calling for his last 320,000.
Zhechev instantly tossed Q♣10♦ into the muck as Palma turned over A♠8♣ for a pair of aces to double up.
