Bello Finds the Aces in the Big Blind
Level 41
: Blinds 1,300,000/2,500,000, 2,500,000 ante
Action folded to Panagiotis Mavritsakis in the small blind and he put most of his chips in the middle, enough to cover Albyn Bello, who was in the big blind. Bello quickly announced call.
Albyn Bello: A♠A♥
Panagiotis Mavritsakis: 9♣2♣
Mavritsakis gained some outs after hitting middle pair on the flop of 7♣9♦J♥.
For proof it is never easy, the turn J♣ gave Mavritsakis a flush draw. However, the river was the J♦ and Bello made a full house to double-up, while Mavritsakis was left with a short stack of less than five big blinds.
