Samaha Doubles With Aces

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Bernard Samaha
Bernard Samaha

Angelo Patane raised from under the gun to 1,800. Afshin Afsharorumieh called in the cutoff before Bernard Samaha three bet to 8,200. Only Patane called.

The flop came {q-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and Samaha bet 12,000 when checked to. Patane moved all in covering Samaha and Samaha quickly called.

Bernard Samaha: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}
Angelo Patane: {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

Samaha was ahead with an overpair while Patane had a flush draw. The turn was a brick as it came the {q-Spades}. The {q-Diamonds} gave Patane the king high flush however it was no good as Samaha had the full house for the double up.
