Pardo Doubles Through Mokri
Level 16
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Playing five-handed, Aleksejs Ponakovs raised to 30,000 from the hijack and Kayhan Mokri shoved with the biggest stack on the table from the button. Juan Pardo called for his last 190,000 from the small blind and Ponakovs reluctantly folded his cards.
Juan Pardo: 10♣10♠
Kayhan Mokri: 6♠6♦
Pardo was poised to double up with pocket tens. The A♣A♥J♣ flop meant only a six would send Pardo out of the tournament. The 7♣ turn followed by the J♥ river didn't help Mokri and he had to send a big portion of his stack over to Pardo.
