Farrell Slow Plays Aces

Adam Lamers

Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Niall Farrell raised to 600,000 from under the gun and Matthew Zambanini called from the big blind. The flop came 8♠8♦6♣ and the action checked through to the 6♦ on the turn and the 7♦ on the river.

Zambanini finally led out with a bet of 1,100,000 and Farrell deliberated for a minute before making the call. "I'm probably not folding this hand," he mentioned during his thought process.

Zambanini tabled Q♦10♥ for just queen-high while Farrell flipped over A♠A♥ to scoop the pot.
