Bilea Loses his Chips, Then Doubles Up
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Gheorghe Bilea limped from under the gun, then called after the small blind raised to 9,000.
On a flop of A?9?10?, the small blind slowly bet 6,000, and Gheorghe Bilea quickly called. However, he folded after the small blind bet 1,500 on the turn 7?.
In the following hand, Bilea, in the big blind, went all-in for 25,500 against the same player, who called from the button.
Gheorghe Bilea: Q?J?
Button player: K?J?
Bilea stood up, seemingly prepared to leave as he was on the edge of elimination after the flop A?2?6? and the turn 5?. However, he was saved by the Q? on the river, which gave him a pair and allowed him to double up.
