Tumboli Has the Better Pair
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Michael Mizrachi raised to 600,000 from under the gun and won the blinds, as table short stack Raj Vohra sigh-folded.
Zarvan Tumboli then limped in, and so did Vohra from the small blind, while Mizrachi checked in the big blind.
They checked the J♥10♦6♦ flop to the 2♥ turn, on which Vohra checked. Mizrachi bet 800,000 and Tumboli called, while Vohra folded.
Both elected to check down the 9♣ river and Mizrachi declared "one pair" without showing his cards just yet. Tumboli rolled over his A♠A♦4♠3♥ and that won the pot.
"Come on Grinder, you are not a man, you just play the nuts," Martin Zamani exclaimed.
"I had the ace of hearts, too," Mizrachi replied.
