"Hero Call Gone Wrong"

Connor Richards

Level 33 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Sergio Aido raised to 450,000 from under the gun with A♠3♠ and Sami Bechahed called on the button with 8♣7♣.

Aido checked on the flop of 2♦10♣8♠ and Bechahed bet 500,000. Aido called. Aido checked again on the 2♣ turn and Bechahed checked back.

Aido checked once more on the 9♣ river and Bechahed bet 1,750,000. Aido called with his ace-high and saw the bad news as Bechahed tabled his flush.

"Hero call gone wrong," noted James Hartigan.

"I absolutely hated that call," commented Phil Hellmuth.
