Martinez Doubles Through Ajayi

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Anthony Martinez
Anthony Martinez

Dapo Ajayi opened on the button and received a call from Anthony Martinez, who defended his big blind. The flop came {q-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{6-Spades} and Martinez check-called a continuation-bet of 18,000 from Ajayi.

Martinez checked again on the turn {8-Clubs} and Ajayi fired a second barrel, with Martinez check-jamming for 147,000 and Ajayi called. The two flashed their hands to one another briefly before leaving them face-down while play continued on all remaining tables.

Anthony Martinez: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Dapo Ajayi: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}

"I would have done the same thing," said Ajayi of Martinez's play. "I couldn't get away with just one over(card) on the flop. Nice hand."

Play then finished, hands were fully tabled, and Martinez held on the river {6-Hearts} to score the double.

Meanwhile, on an adjacent table Michael Wyporowich increased his stack by getting three streets of value with {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades} on a board of {2-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{7-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}, betting the whole way against Peter Nigh and showing the best hand at showdown.
