Greenstein for Bansal
Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Parminderjit Mehmi began the hand with a raise to 270,000 from under the gun. The action folded to Paawan Bansal on the button, who chose to raise it to 800,000.
Wellington Araujo surveyed the table before he chose to jam for 1,620,000 from the small blind. Mehmi asked for a count before she folded. Bansal then opted to call to put Araujo at risk.
Wellington Araujo: Q♣Q♦
Paawan Bansal: A♥Q♠
Araujo needed to fade an ace as they headed to the runout, and the flop of 4♠5♦K♠ was a welcome sight.
The 2♣ was not nearly as welcome a sight as it gave Bansal a straight draw as well as his outs to an ace.
Disaster struck for Araujo when the A♣ rolled over on the river to eliminate him and grow Bansal's stack past the six million chip mark.
