Cortazar Holds to Double, Pollak Left Short
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
The action folded all the way to the players in the blinds, and Xavier Cortazar raised to 60,000. Benjamin Pollak responded by moving all in, and Cortazar called immediately, putting himself at risk.
Xavier Cortazar: Q♥Q♣
Benjamin Pollak: A♣4♥
The 8♣8♠4♠ provided Pollak some more immediate outs, but the 9♠ turn and Q♠ river only served to improve Cortazar to a full house, giving him the check mark.
