Esposito Doubles Through Champlin
Level 32
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Spencer Champlin opened to 600,000 with 9♥10♥ and was then three-bet to 1,800,000 by Andrew Esposito with A♠K♦.
The action folded back around to Champlin who made the call and the two went heads-up to a flop of 7♥4♠8♣.
Champlin checked to Esposito who continued for 1,300,000 but was then check-raised all-in by Champlin for 9,000,000, which sent him into the tank.
After a good amount of time deliberating, Esposito made the call to put himself at risk and the cards were tabled.
Esposito was in the lead with his ace-high, but still needed to fade a lot of outs to stay alive. Luckily for him, the turn came the A♦ to give him a big advantage and the river Q♠ bricked out to award him the massive double.
