Gonzalez Extracts The Maximum from His Aces
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
After an open to 800 in early position, Danny Gonzalez made it 2,200. Just after him, Mehdi Daruwala called, as did the player in early position.
On the 
flop, Gonzalez bet 3,000 and Daruwala was the only player to call. Turn was a 
but both players checked it, to the 
on the river. This time, Gonzalez bet 7,000 and after a quick reflection, Daruwala finally gave it up his hand.
Gonzalez has now 100,000, but it's also thanks to a previous winning hand, as he explained: "With aces, I went all in on 
flop, without the ace of spades. My opponent had pocket nines, without the flush draw neither. And I held to the river!"
