Level 27
: 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
There was 2,500,000 in the middle on a completed board of 
, and Brandon Cantu checked to a player on the button.
The button thought for more than a minute, before announcing all in for 2,700,000. Cantu had him covered, but it would be no easy call.
Looking him over, Cantu began counting his chips, surveying how much it would cost his stack.
With two pair already on the board, Cantu called and his opponent flipped over 
for a counterfeited pair.
Players at the table were expecting a full house, but Cantu tabled 
playing the board for two pair and his ace high was good for a near double up.
"What a call. I folded ace-jack on the flop", said the player to his left.
