Easy Come, Easy Go For Valls as Miegel Doubles With Aces
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Josep Valls had just doubled up, but couldn't keep his new-found chips for long after a clash with Jakob Miegel to his left.
The full board read 2♣5♠6♠K♠6♥ and all the chips were already in the middle with Miegel's A♦A♣ being good the pot, as Valls cards were mucked. Some of the TV crew told PokerNews that Valls had pocket nines, which were no good against the pocket aces of Miegel.
With that pot, Miegel jumps up to around 170,000, and Valls drops back to 80,000.
