Daher's Stack Soars After Hero Calling With an Ace
Level 14
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Albert Daher opened to 40,000 from the hijack and was three-bet to 115,000 by Masashi Oya in the cutoff. It was folded back around to Daher, who called.
Daher check-called a 78,000 bet from Oya on the 5♦6♣5♠ flop and then both players checked on the 5♣ turn.
The J♣ filled the river and Daher checked once more, prompting a 225,000 bet from Oya.
Daher mulled over his decision for quite some time, but he eventually convinced himself to slam in a call.
Oya turned over K♠Q♦ and Daher triumphantly turned over A♠3♠ to claim the pot with his ace.
