Becker Chips Up
Level 18
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Brock Wilson opened the cutoff with 6♣5♣ and was called by Jeremy Becker in the big blind with A♣6♥.
Both players hit a piece of the A♥8♥5♠ flop, with Becker flopping best, and check-calling a bet of 85,000 from Wilson.
After the 7♦ on the turn, both players picked up the same straight draw, and Becker decided to lead out for a bet of 125,000, which Wilson called.
The river was the 6♥ giving both players two pair, but both players checked to showdown and Becker took the pot with his two pair, aces and sixes.
