Padron Picks Up Aces to Double Off Correia
Level 34
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Ruben Correia raised to 1,000,000 in early position and Joey Padron moved all in for 5,600,000 in middle position. The table folded back to Correia who called to put Padron at risk.
Joey Padron: A♠A♦ 
Ruben Correia: J♦10♦
Padron had woken up with aces and was a big favorite to double up. The 7♥3♥3♣ flop removed almost any hope for Correia, but the J♥ turn gave him two outs going to the river. No miracles arrived on the K♠ and Padron doubled up.
The next hand, Padron picked up A♥A♦ again and raised to 1,000,000. Leo Margets three-bet to 3,000,000 in the small blind, Padron shoved for 12,450,000, and Margets folded A♠J♣.
