Aflatounian's Hero Call Extends His Lead

With a large amount of chips already in the pot and the board showing the player in the big blind checked. Ali Aflatounian bet out 11,500 from the button. His opponent raised to 29,000. Aflatounian called.

The river brought the and the big blind instantly moved all in for around 50,000 in chips. Aflatounian went into the tank for over a minute before announcing a call. The player in the big blind then shook his head and tabled for jack-high.

What shocked the the player in the big blind was when Aflatounian then tabled for ace-high resulting in him storming away from the table in disbelief.

"Everything get's there. Four-five. A king. Clubs!" Matt Rolfe said to himself, following the hand. "What made you decide to call?" Rolfe then asked Aflatounian.

"I couldn't put him on any hand," said Aflatounian, defending his decision.

"He's the big blind. He could've had anything," Rolfe added, still shocked with the hand that just played out.

Either way, the hero call from Aflatounian now sees him sit behind the biggest stack in the room with a couple of levels left to play in the day.
