Middleton's Top Pair is Good a Showdown
Level 6
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
With around 10,000 in the pot on a flop of A♣2♠5♠, Alexey Savenkov bet 2,800 from the button and Tom Middleton check-raised to 9,000 out of the big blind. Savenkov made the call.
The K♠ dropped on the turn, and Middleton bet 11,000, which again Savenkov called.
Both players checked the Q♥ river and Middleton's A♥9♦ for a pair of aces took down the pot.
