Boivin's Hero Call Turns Deadly
Level 19
: 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
We missed the preflop action between Thomas Boivin and Joseph Zona but there was over 100,000 already in the middle with a 
board showing.
Boivin led out for 155,000 from late position and was facing a 553,000 all in raise Zona made from the cutoff. After very careful consideration, Boivin tossed in a chip for the call and the two players tabled their hands.
Joseph Zona: 
Thomas Boivin: 
Boivin flopped top pair but was well behind Zona's pocket aces and neither the 
turn nor the 
river changed a thing as Zona collected the massive double up.
