Bitar Runs into Rockets
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Aziz Efe opened to 5,500 from under the gun before John Doe three-bet to 16,000 from the cutoff. Ghassan Bitar called from the button and Efe called as well.
Doe bet 27,000 when checked to on the 5♠3♣2♦ flop. Bitar moved all in for 97,500, forcing Efe out of the pot while Doe made the call to put Bitar at risk.
Ghassan Bitar: 10♥10♣
John Doe: A♦A♠
Doe remained ahead with the bigger overpair on the J♣ turn and J♦ river to score the knockout and drag in a sizable pot.
