Ore Doubles Through Balint
Level 25
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Alan Mehamed raised to 135,000 from the hijack before Miguel Ore Avila called on the button. Sebestyen Balint and Garth Paul called from the blinds to create a four-handed pot.
The J♣A♥6♣ flop was checked to Mehamed, who bet 250,000. Ore called before Balint re-raised to 1,600,000. Paul and Mehamed folded, but Ore put himself all-in for 1,315,000 to be at risk.
Miguel Ore Avila: A♠J♠10♣10♦7♥
Sebestyen Balint: A♣K♥9♣7♠2♠
Ore held top two pair, and was ahead when the chips went in.
The 6♦ turn, and the Q♥ river did not dethrone Avila as he earned the double up.
