Teltscher Cracks Aces to Double
Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Toby Lewis opened to 250,000 from the cutoff before Mark Teltscher jammed for 2,600,000 from the small blind. Joe Ghio just called from the big blind and Lewis released his hand.
Mark Teltscher: A♦9♦
Joe Ghio: A♠A♥
Teltscher was in rough shape but had a dose of hope after pairing up on the 10♦9♣6♠ flop. The 5♦ turn saw his equity increase as he picked up a flush draw. The table, minus Ghio, erupted when the 2♦ river completed Teltscher's flush for the ace-cracking double up.
