Greenblatt Nearly Avoids Disaster; Guay Gets Value With Aces

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Alexander Greenblatt opened with a raise to 175,000 from under the gun. Action folded around to David Guay who reraised, making it 480,000 from the hijack seat. Action folded back to Greenblatt and he just flatted, bringing the two players to a flop.

On the {2-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop, Greenblatt checked over to Guay who put out a bet of 350,000. Greenblatt called.

The turn was the {6-Diamonds} and Greenblatt checked once more. Guay fired again, this time for 975,000. Greenblatt called after thinking for about a minute. On the {Q-Clubs} river, Greenblatt checked for a third time. Guay thought for a while, then decided to check back.

Greenblatt turned up {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} for a pair of jacks, but Guay was holding {A-Spades}{A-Hearts} for a better pair, and he was able to take down the big pot.
