Aristotelous Picks Off Opponent with Pair of Fives

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 0 ante

In early five-handed play, the hijack opened to 300. Aleksa Jovanovic called from the small blind and Georgios Aristotelous defended his big blind.

The flop came {8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} and the hijack continued for 300. Jovanovic folded and Aristotelous called.

The turn brought the {2-Hearts} and the hijack put out a bet of 400. Aristotelous called.

The {5-Hearts} completed the board and the hijack put out a 1,000 chip. Aristotelous considered his options for about 15 seconds before making the call.

The hijack could only produce {q-Spades}{10-Spades} for queen-high and Aristotelous tabled {5-Spades}{4-Clubs} for a pair of fives and the win.
