Parrino Avoids the Worst

Matt Hansen
Matt Hansen
Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Action was heads up with around 10,000 in the middle and 2?5?A? on the flop. Donna Parrino tossed out 4,000 and Elisabeth Hurlbert went all in for around 13,000.

Parrino shook her head and followed her instincts with a face-up fold of K?K?. Hurtbert dragged the pot in and turned over A?A? to confirm Parrino's cooler suspicions.
