Montalban on Heaps After Flush Over Flush
Level 28
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
The action was caught on a turn of 3♦A♠K♦7♦, where Petre Ionescu, in a pot worth 500,000, checked from the big blind before calling the bet of 265,000 from Manel Montalban under the gun.
Montalban sized up to 750,000 on the J♠ river, about half his stack. Ionescu took some time before putting in the rest, quickly being called by Montalban.
Ionescu tabled Q♦4♦ for the second nuts but was outdone by the A♦9♦ of Montalban, who doubled up with the stones.
