Dato Cracks Aces to Reduce Sanchez
Andrea Dato opened to 35,000 from under the gun and Jose Gonzalez Sanchez three-bet to 75,000 from the hijack. Dato made the call.
The flop came 9?9?7?. Dato checked and Sanchez bet 50,000. Dato put in a check-raise to 150,000 and Sanchez made the call.
On the 6? turn Dato checked and Sanchez bet 325,000. Dato check-raised for the second street in a row, this time moving all in for 755,000. Sanchez looked visibly frustrated but quickly made the call to put Dato at risk.
Andrea Dato: Q?9?
Jose Gonzalez Sanchez: A?A?
Dato's trip nines were well ahead of Sanchez, who was drawing to two outs with pocket aces. He could not find an ace on the 5? river and Dato collected a massive double up worth nearly two million while also making a serious dent in Sanchez' stack.
