Ojeil Escapes Lightly
Akin Tuna opened to 450,000 from middle position and Chady Ojeil three-bet to 1,075,000 from the hijack. When it got back to Tuna, he called.
"The good news is that you only called," remarked Ojeil before the flop of 7♣6♠Q♥ hit the felt. Tuna checked then Ojeil bet 575,000. Tuna check-raised to 1,900,000, and Ojeil called.
A 3♠ on the turn saw Tuna move all in for over 10,000,000, giving Ojeil a huge decision for his stack of around 8,000,000.
"Yesterday you just called with kings and aces twice," muttered Ojeil while he mulled it over. After some more consideration, Ojeil folded A♣Q♣ face up.
"Do you want to see," asked Tuna. "If you want to show me, then ok," replied Ojeil.
Tuna then rolled over top set with Q♦Q♠!
"I guess I'm freerolling the tournament now," joked Ojeil.
