Mitchell Scores Double KO in Massive Pot
Pot-Limit Omaha
Nacho Barbero kicked things off with a raise to 70,000 in early position. Richard Green flat-called in the cutoff and Brandon Mitchell three-bet to 220,000 out of the big blind. Both Barbero and Green called to see a flop of 7♠4♣3♣.
Mitchell checked the flop and Barbero piled all in for 525,000. Green reshoved all in for 1,385,000 and Mitchell asked for a count before making the call.
Nacho Barbero: A♦8♥7♦6♥
Richard Green: Q♣Q♦8♣5♥
Brandon Mitchell: A♠A♣J♥2♣
"You have to have aces with clubs here," Jared Bleznick said as Mitchell rolled over his hand. "You played it perfectly, you're gonna scoop!"
The turn was the A♥ which gave Mitchell a stranglehold on the hand. The 8♦ on the river did not complete any straights and Mitchell scored the double knockout to become the new chip leader.
