Medes Stays Alive
Level 33
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Action picked up with Cornel Medes moving all in out of the small blind during a raised pot.
The big blind folded and the original raiser folded, leaving Jose Carlos Brito left to act. Brito asked for a count, and the dealer confirmed Medes was in for 2,250,000.
Briton then called to put Medes at risk.
Cornel Medes: K?7? 
Jose Carlos Brito: A?J?
The dealer fanned 10?10?2? on the flop, keeping Brito’s ace in the lead. The 7? on the turn, however, put Medes ahead.
Medes secured the winning hand when 5? appeared on the river to give him a full double up.
