Corbelli Picks Off Zhao on the River
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
"Don't tell me what to do. It's very rude. If I want to make two pair, then I'll make two pair," Alex Keating joked with tablemate Alexandros Michas.
"He didn't come all the way to Paris just to make one pair," Alec Torelli added.
Meanwhile, Loris Corbelli had opened to 4,000 in middle position and Cheng Zhao called.
The flop came 10♣7♦6♦ and Corbelli continued for 5,000. Zhao called, and they both checked the K♥ turn.
Zhao also checked the 3♣ river, and Corbelli bet 7,500. Zhao then raised to 30,500, and Corbelli called.
Zhao showed 8♦7♠ for a pair of sevens, but Corbelli turned over Q♥Q♦ to win the pot.
