Ellis Let Off the Hook by Page
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Action picked up on the turn with 14,000 in the middle and the board reading 10♥9♣5♣8♥ in a pot between Richard Ellis from early position and Virgil Page in the cutoff.
Ellis checked to Page, who took some before he elected to do the same.
On the 10♠ river, Ellis checked for a final time to Page who checked back after a few seconds. Ellis was happy to flip over J♥J♦, but it was second-best to the A♠A♥ of Page, and Ellis let out a smile after losing close to the minimum.
