Medrano Left on Fumes After Doubling Auvil
Level 27
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
After Ian Auvil raised on the button with K?K?, Miguel Medrano woke up with A?J? in the small blind and moved all in for about 1,800,000.
Ronald Kaepernick folded and Auvil quickly called with a similar stack.
"No ace," called Auvil as the dealer spread a flop of 10?8?4?. Auvil's kings continued to hold on the 8? turn, and then finally with the 5? river.
The dealer counted down the chips to see if Medrano was still alive. He was barely just so, holding onto 200,000 chips, while Auvil moved solidly back into second place.
