Resende Loses Big Pot to Ahuja
Level 26
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Joao Resende opened to 80,000 from under the gun. Ankit Ahuja reraised to 190,000 from the hijack. Action folded back around to Resende who went into the tank for a minute before announcing all in, Ahuja took a moment before making the call.
Ankit Ahuja: 9♣9♦
Joao Resende: 7♠7♥
Resende was in bad shape and the 4♥Q♠10♦ flop. Both players made two pair on the Q♦ turn but Ahuja held through the 2♣ river to secure a double up and dent Resende's stack.
