Mesina Cracks Pilotin's Aces
Level 13
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
With about 35,000 already in the middle, Armando Mesina was in the small blind and got it all in on a flop of 8♣6♥Q♥ for his remaining 117,000 against Ediberto Pilotin in middle position.
Armando Mesina: Q♠J♦ 
Ediberto Pilotin: A♣A♦
The turn landed the 5♦ with Pilotin still far in the lead, but Mesina drilled the J♣ on the river to improve to two pair to stay alive.
