Velasco, Kretschmann Play a Massive Classic Flip
Level 28
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Dorian Melchers raised to 120,000 in middle position and Felix Kretschmann three-bet to 305,000 on the button. He hadn't even finished putting in the chips before Juan Velasco shoved for 1,710,000 in the small blind. Melchers folded, but Kretschmann snap-called.
Juan Velasco: Q♦Q♥
Felix Kretschmann: A♥K♥
It was a classic flip with more than 3,500,000 at stake, and Velasco took out his phone to film the action as the flop came 8♣5♦3♠. The 10♣ turn kept him in the lead, while the Q♣ river improved him to a set, and Velasco doubled up.
