Bermon Gets There
Level 7
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
The pot stood at 9,000 with two players looking at a flop of 2♠J♣K♠.
Alexandre Bermon, who was under the gun, checked to Ardiles, in the hijack, who bet out 5,500. Bermon check-raised to 15,100. Ardiles moved all in and Bermon called the bet for his effective stack of 43,500.
Alexandre Bermon: A♠10♠
Ardiles: A♦A♣
Bermon had run into aces, but had flush and straight outs to survive. Ardiles' aces were drawing dead on the 5♠ turn and 4♠ river, keeping Bermon alive.
