Welo Beats Dela Cruz in Small Showdown
Level 24
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Valeriy Pak raised to 80,000 with the A♦10♠ in the cutoff and then folded when David Erquiaga jammed with the superior stack out of the small blind holding the A♣4♣.
Tor Welo then limped the A♣9♥ and Edwin Dela Cruz checked the 9♠7♠. The J♠6♥5♦ flop was checked by Welo, who then called a bet worth 40,000 by Dela Cruz. Both checked the 6♦ turn to the 5♥ river on which Welo checked again. Dela Cruz aka "hit the heat" bet 110,000 and Welo called to win the pot.
