Almeida Prevails With Worst Hand
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Gonzalo Almeida opened to 60,000 with K♥J♣ and earned a call from Alessandro Minasi in the hijack, who had the 10♠10♦. Farid Jattin had arrived in the big blind and came along with 6♣6♠ as well.
The A♦7♠2♣ flop missed everyone for Jattin to check, Almeida to bet 80,000 and Minasi beat him into the pot. Jattin let go and they went heads-up to the Q♣ turn. Almeida now sized up to 250,000 and took it down.
