Amiri Doubles Through Bean
Level 22
: Blinds 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Action folded around to Ehsan Amiri, who shoved for his last 875,000 from the small blind. Ron Bean tanked a bit in the big blind and then announced, "Call" to put Amiri at risk.
Ehsan Amiri: K♣9♥
Ron Bean: J♣10♣
Amiri held a slight lead with his king and remained ahead on the 7♠5♦2♣ flop. The 4♣ turn improved Bean's outs after giving him a flush draw, which got tablemate Billy Argyros to say, "It's never easy."
The 9♠ river left Amiri best with a pair of nines, however, and he was awarded the double up.
