Big Flip Goes Aido's Way
Level 24
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Sergio Aido raised to 320,000 from the cutoff, and Artsiom Lasouski jammed from the big blind. Aido had the effective stack of 2,145,000, and after thinking for a while, he made the call.
Sergio Aido: K♣J♣
Artsiom Lasouski: 2♠2♣
Aido found himself in a race with his two paint cards, and he took a huge lead after pairing his jack on the J♦4♥Q♥ flop.
The 8♠ turn and A♦ river changed nothing, and Aido doubled, while Lasouski became the new short stack on the final table bubble.
