Aziz Ascends After Seven-Figure Flip
Level 12
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Thomas Muehloecker open-raised to 33,000 in the hijack. Marcelo Aziz then three-bet to 90,000 on the button, and Muehloecker clicked it back to 175,000 in response.
Aziz finally five-bet jammed for his stack of 517,000, and Muehloecker called with the covering stack.
Marcelo Aziz: A♣K♠
Thomas Muehloecker: Q♠Q♦
Muehloecker looked poised for the knockout after the J♣5♦9♠ flop, but the K♦ turn and A♦ river provided Aziz with two pair, winning him a big double-up.
