Zegal Cracks Aces on the River
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Raul Mestre opened to 3,000 from middle position and was called by Vittorio Maugini from the small blind. Stanislav Zegal made it 12,500 from the big blnid to put the action back on Mestre. The Spaniard four-bet to 28,000, forcing out Maugini. Zegal stuck around.
The 10♠6♠5♣ flop checked through to the 5♠ turn. Zegal jammed for 32,500 and was snap-called by the slightly bigger stack.
Stanislav Zegal: 9♠9♥
Raul Mestre: A♦A♥
Mestre was ahead with aces but Zegal sealed the checkmark on the 2♠ river as he made a flush. Mestre was left with 10,000, which went up in smoke shortly after.
