Ramos Can't Fade the Board Pair
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
George Wolff limped from early position before Joshua Pollock raised to 18,000 from the hijack. Felipe Tavares Ramos called for his last 9,000 and Wolff made the call as well.
With Ramos all-in, the dealer burned a card to reveal the flop of 9♦7♦10♥. Wolff bet enough to put Pollock all in, and after showing he had pocket aces in the hole, Pollock opted to fold.
Felipe Tavares Ramos: A♦6♣5♦3♣
George Wolff: Q♦J♠10♣8♣
Wolff had flopped a straight, and Ramos needed to find a diamond to double-up. The turn was the 8♦ to give Ramos a flush, but the river came the 8♠ improving Wolff to a boat.
