Wagner Takes Himself to Value Town

Level 2 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

With around 20,000 chips in the middle on a board of 6993, Gerard Carbo Santamaria fired out 13,400 from the big blind and Adam Wagner called in the hijack.

A 6 on the river put two pair on board, which drew a check out of Santamaria. Wagner then thought for some time before he threw out 10,100, which sent Santamaria into the tank. After mulling it over for a while, Santamaria elected to call.

Wagner quickly tabled 88, but Santamaria flipped 1010 for a bigger pair to take down the pot.
