Orozco Soars With Two Big Pots

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante
Dustin Orozco

Nemanja Vujaklija bet 11,000 on the {6-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{4-Spades} flop and was met with an all in of 43,600 more from Dustin Orozco. Vujaklija called and Orozco was at risk.

Dustin Orozco: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}
Nemanja Vujaklija: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}

Orozco held the better pair with pocket aces and neither the turn {3-Hearts} or river {7-Clubs} changed anything as Orozco took down the pot.

"If I was ten years older you could fold," said Orozco.

A few hands later, Orozco bet 10,000 on the flop {5-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} and was met with an all in of 16,000 more from the player in seat three. Orozco called.

Seat Three: {a-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}
Dustin Orozco: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

Orozco held the better kicker with his pair of aces and the board came clean for Orozco to score the knockout and surge further up the leaderboard.

With a completed board reading {k-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{4-Spades}{3-Hearts}, Zachary Smyth bet 7,000 and Frank Saunders raised to 22,000. Smyth went into the tank.

"Do you have a five," asked Smyth? "I think my hand is too good to fold."

Smyth called and Saunders did have a five with {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades} for a straight and it was good to win the pot.

Smyth was left short and was eliminated a few hands later.
