Santamaria Flops Two Pair and Scoops a Huge Pot
Level 27
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Antoine Hasbani had his stack of around 300,000 in from the hijack and was called by Afshin Afsharorumieh in the small blind & Gerard Carbo Santamaria in the big blind.
The flop came 9♥8♣K♠ where Afsharorumieh check-called a bet of 300,000 from Santamaria to the 5♦ turn, where he again went into check-call mode when Santamaria bet 475,000.
A 3♣ filled out the board and Afsharorumieh checked for a third time, then Santamaria fired out 775,000. Afsharorumieh didn't need to think for too long before he called.
Santamaria then flipped over two pair with 9♠8♠, Hasbani mucked his J♦10♦, and Afsharorumieh showed A♥9♦ for a pair of nines before he mucked.
