Wakil Makes the Right Call to Double Through Ghojehvand
Level 23
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Jamil Wakil opened the button to 800,000 and Armin Ghojehvand called from the big blind.
They saw a flop of A♣6♥4♥, where Ghojehvand checked and Wakil bet 700,000. Ghojehvand then moved all in, which gave Wakil a test for the 4,200,000 he had behind.
Wakil started thinking out loud. "If you had an ace, you'd have shoved pre. You're the chip leader, you'd apply pressure," he said. Eventually, Wakil did call.
Jamil Wakil: Q♠Q♥
Armin Ghojehvand: 7♥5♠
Ghojehvand didn't have an ace, but he did have a straight draw, which meant any three or eight would end Wakil's run. However, the 2♦10♥ runout was clean for the Canadian player, and he doubled up.
