Chaoui Smacks the Flop and Takes a Chunk Off Machado
Level 19
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Hugo Machado limped in from the small blind before Mehdi Chaoui picked up 9♥9♦ again in the big blind and raised to 140,000. Machado then reraised to 350,000, and Chaoui called.
The 9♣2♣2♥ flop gave Chaoui a full house as Machado led out for 180,000. Chaoui just called and they both checked the 3♠ turn.
Machado bet another 225,000 on the 10♥ river, and Chaoui came back with an all-in shove. Machado folded A♣3♥ for his last 870,000, and Chaoui took the pot.
