Karatsu Sends Colillas Out Via the River
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Hiroki Karatsu opened from middle position to 60,000 and Ramon Colillas three-bet to 180,000 in the cutoff. The action got back to Karatsu, who shoved, and Colillas called off his stack of 925,000.
Ramon Colillas: J♥J♦
Hiroki Karatsu: A♦Q♣
Both players had similar stacks, but it was Colillas who was at risk with his pocket jacks. Those jacks looked good through the 4♣6♠5♦ flop and the 7♠ turn. However, an A♥ on the river spelled the end for Colillas as Karatsu rivered a pair of aces.
