Johnson Doubles Palma, Departs Shortly After
Level 27
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
On a Q♥J♠7♠ flop, Aaron Johnson checked from the small blind to Nicholas Palma on the button, who bet 260,000. Johnson raised to 750,000 and quickly called when Palma jammed in his stack of 1,805,000.
Nicholas Palma: A♦Q♣
Aaron Johnson: K♣Q♦
Palma had Johnson outkicked, and his ace remained in play on the 2♣5♣ runout to double him up. Johnson was left with around 150,000, which he lost not much later, becoming the final player to exit before the final two tables.
