Hermoza Finds the Call
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Action was picked up on the river, with a board reading 5♣9♥10♣9♦4♣. There was 20,500 in the middle, and the pot was contested between big blind David Pelosi, and late position Michael Hermoza.
Pelosi had led out for 15,000, and Hermoza was clearly in pain regarding the decision he had to make. After quite some thinking, he stuck in the call, and his A♦A♣ won the pot against his opponent's 10♦5♦ for a counterfeited two pair.
