Catela Triples Up with Aces
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
A player in early position moved all in for his remaining 27,000, and then the hand got interesting between the blinds after action folded to them.
The player in the small blind flatted before leaning forward to look at Jose Catela, who was in the big blind. Catela was deliberate, taking at least 30 seconds before announcing an all-in bet for his remaining 86,000. The player in the small blind, who had both players covered, immediately called.
Catela: A♠A♣
Player in small blind: J♠J♠
First all-in player: K♦10♠
The dealer ran out 8♦3♦7♥Q♠5♣, giving Catela the main pot of 84,000, and the side pot, which totaled 118,000.
