Anton and El-Waly Clash Again
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
On a board of K♠8♦3♥, Mohamed El-Wely checked from under the gun and Dragos-Florin Anton bet 40,000 from the hijack. El-Wely raised to 90,000, and Anton quickly called.
A 6♠ hit the turn and El-Wely kept betting, this time for 115,000. Anton was going nowhere and called to see the 5♣ river, where both knuckled to showdown.
El-Wely flipped over A♥J♠ for ace-high, but Anton had a pair of eights with A♣8♣ to scoop the pot.
