Xanthopoulos Takes A 3-Way Pot
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Pavlos Xanthopoulos opened from middle position to 2,200, and was called by Samy Dubonnet on the button and Ignacio Moron in the big blind.
On the flop J?A?2?, Xanthopoulos made a continuation bet of 2,500. But Dubonnet raised to 8,000. Moron check-called this amount, as did Xanthopoulos.
The turn was the 4?. Moron and Xanthopoulos checked to Dubonnet, who also checked. After the river K?, all three players checked again.
The first player to show his cards, Moron, revealed A?10? for a pair of aces. However, it wasn't enough as Xanthopoulos revealed A?K? for two pairs, the winning hand.
