Maubach Flops the World to Double
Level 24
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
When it folded to Angelo Arossi in the small blind, he jammed, putting Marcel Maubach all in in the big blind. Maubach looked at his cards and then called for his last 625,000.
Marcel Maubach: A♣5♣ 
Angelo Arossi: A♦6♦
Both players had a weak ace and a chop looked likely, but the 8♣5♥Q♣ flop catapulted Maubach into the lead with bottom pair and the flush draw.
The Q♠ turn nd 7♠ river were safe for Maubach, and he doubled up to over a million.
