Umerova Scoops Big Pot

Level 30 : Blinds 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

Cole "anniemay" Ferraro opened to 48,000 from middle position before Safiya "Player2021" Umerova three-bet to 72,000 on the button. Ferraro responded with a four-bet to 199,999, which Umerova called.

Ferraro continued for 50,000 on a flop of 9AA and Umerova called.

The 7 turn saw Ferraro fire again, making it 150,000 to go. Again, Umerova called.

Both players checked when the 5 completed the board. Umerova showed down JJ, good enough to take down a sizable pot.
