Taskalos Calls Correctly
Level 18
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Action was heads up to a completed board showing 3♥A♣Q♦8♣10♠, and Bryan Hicks moved all in from the big blind. That put the decision on Paul Taskalos, who held a shorter stack in early position.
Taskalos took some time and opted to stick in the call. Hicks showed K♦10♣ for a pair of tens, and Taskalos exhaled as he showed A♠J♦ for a pair of aces to stay alive and build a nice stack.
