Tellez Doubles Through the "Master"
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Phil Laak opened to 2,500 from under the gun and Juan Tellez jammed all in for 27,400 from a couple of seats over. The action folded back to Laak who asked for a count and then contemplated for a minute before calling.
Juan Tellez: Q♠Q♦
Phil Laak: A♥Q♥
"Up against the master," Tellez said as both players took out their phones to start recording. The board ran out K♣6♣5♣2♦7♠ and Tellez held on with his pocket queens for a double up.
