Mestre Fires Three Streets

Level 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

First to act, Raul Mestre opened to 125,000 holding 77, and only Xavier Cortazar called in the big blind with AJ.

The dealer spread a 276 flop, and when Cortazar checked, Mestre continued for 125,000, which Cortazar called.

The 3 turn joined the board, and Cortazar checked a second time. Mestre didn't slow down, betting 450,000. Once again, Cortazar called.

Cortazar checked for a third time on the 4 river, left with just ace-high, and Mestre moved all in, having a covering stack. Cortazar didn't entertain the bet, though, and returned his cards to the dealer.
