Velez Leaves Aggoun on Fumes
Level 5
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Loubna Aggoun raised to 1,000 from early position and was called in two spots by Veronica Velez from middle position and Cinthia Escobar from the cutoff.
Aggoun continued for 3,000 on the 2♦5♦10♥ flop, which was called by Velez. Escobar folded.
Aggoun checked the J♣ turn before Velez bet 2,000. Aggoun called.
The A♦ river led to a check from Aggoun. Velez wagered 5,000, and Aggoun flicked in the call.
Aggoun showed A♥10♦ for two pair, but it was no good as Velez tabled Q♦J♦ for a rivered flush to take down the pot.
At another table, Shiina Okamoto entered the tournament with a fresh stack of 20,000.
