Pimlott Saved by the Chop
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Bryan Pimlott opened to 1,200 from middle position and Victor Paredes three-bet to 3,300 from the hijack. Shawn Stroke defended his big blind and Pimlott topped up and made the call.
The K♦3♥Q♠ flop saw action check to Paredes who continuation bet for 4,000 and he saw Stroke fold. Pimlott moved all in for ~17,000 and Paredes snap called.
Bryan Pimlott: A♠K♠
Victor Paredes : A♥A♦
Pimlott was behind to Paredes's aces despite flopping top pair. He did have some hope after flopping some backdoor flush draw outs.
A J♣ turn saw the straight draw come in for both players and the 10♥ river saved Pimlott from busting out the main event.
