Bello Wins a Flip
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Zaher Samaan opened to 7,500 in the hijack before Elvyn Bello moved all in on his left for 50,500. Action folded back to Samaan, who took some time before making the call.
Elvyn Bello: A♠K♥ 
Zaher Samaan: J♥J♦
Bello was flipping for his tournament life and connected with the 8♣10♥K♣ flop to make top pair. Samaan could not catch up on the 7♦ turn or Q♥ river, as Bello doubled his stack.
