Lipner Wins the Battle of the Blinds

Gabrielle Barredo
Gabrielle Barredo
Level 20 : Limits 10,000/15,000, 0 ante

Michael Lipner limped in the small blind and Evan Melgaard checked his option.

The flop came 10♠K♦A♠. Lipner bet and Melgaard raised all-in. Lipner called.

Evan Melgaard: Q♥7♥ All in
Michael Lipner: A♦3♣

Lipner caught a top pair on the flop ut Melgaard had outs for a straight draw. The dealer peeled 6♥ turn and a 10♥ river that didn't help Melgaard at all. Lipner scooped the pot as Megaard hit the rails.
