Taieb Spikes the River to Decimate Vela
Level 29
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
With around 1,200,000 in the pot on a board of 6♥7♥2♥A♦, David Taieb bet 575,000 from the button before Pol Vela moved all in from under the gun. Taieb snap-called for 2,050,000.
Taieb showed A♥K♠ for top pair, but he needed help against Vela's A♣2♣. He got it when the Q♥ fell on the river, giving him a flush as Vela handed over most of his stack.
