Awwad Finds a Double
Level 32
: Blinds 300,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
A limped pot preflop set the stage for a flop of 8♥J♦2♥. Henri Perez Lopez shoved from the big blind and was called by Ryan Awwad, as Awwad was at risk for 5,200,000.
Ryan Awwad: J♠6♠
Henri Perez Lopez: 10♥2♣
Awwad was ahead with his pair of jacks, but Lopez could still win with a ten or a deuce.
The 8♠ turn and K♠ river brought no such thing, as Awwad earned the double.
