Palermo Doubles Through Pesic

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Alexander Pesic opened from middle position, Leonardo Palermo moved all in for 38,000 and Pesic called, putting Palermo at risk of elimination.

Leonardo Palermo: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Alexander Pesic: {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

The flop came down {j-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and Pesic took the lead after flopping a dime. A {j-Diamonds} came down on the turn and Palermo needed to hit to stay alive. The {a-Diamonds} river did just that as both players now had aces over jacks but Palermo had Pesic out-kicked, scooping in the pot for a complete double.
