Too Many Outs for Mestre
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Vid Zagar moved all in for roughly 120,000 from the hijack, and Raul Mestre called, putting Zagar at risk.
Vid Zagar: 2♠2♣
Raul Mestre: A♥10♥
The 6♥9♣8♠ flop offered Mestre a straight draw, with the 9♥ turn providing yet more outs, as he now had a flush draw and counterfeit outs.
The 9♠ river only served to improve Zagar to a full house.
Mestre didn't call for any specific river card, and when the hand was complete, he remarked "I didn't know which one to ask for."
