Patel Dodges the World to Double
Nível 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
There were about 130,000 chips in the middle and the flop read Q♣J♦5♣. Once the big blind checked, Talesh Patel dropped a bet of 55,000 across the line. His opponent in the big blind check-called.
The K♥ fell on the turn, and the big blind check-raised the bet of 80,000 all-in for 430,000. Patel went gave it some serious thought, taking almost two minutes before calling off his stack of 325,000.
Talesh Patel: K♠4♠
Opponent: 10♣4♣
Patel turned top pair which was ahead but he had to dodge the flush draw and open-ended straight draw of his opponent. The 2♠ river was a safe one though for Patel as he remained in his seat.
