Joumaa Scoops Up as Rossos Hits the Rail

Sava Krink

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

With plenty of preflop raises and re-raises, the pot had swelled to 21,500 by the time the flop revealed A?Q?10?.

Bakhos Joumaa was first to act, leading out with a bet of 6,000. Christopher Rossos responded by raising to 14,000. After a moment of contemplation, Joumaa decided to go all in, easily covering Rossos’s stack. Without hesitation, Rossos snap-called, setting the stage for a showdown.

Rossos revealed K?K?, while Joumaa showed A?J?, having paired his ace on the flop. This left Rossos needing a lot of help. The 9? on the turn didn’t change much, and the 2? on the river sealed Rossos's fate, sending him to the rail and giving Joumaa a good boost to his stack.
