Ferro Gets There to Stay Alive
Level 21
: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
After a preflop betting war, Jose Ferro moved all in and Rajaee Wazwaz made the call to put him at risk.
Jose Ferro: A?Q?10?8?
Rajaee Wazwaz: A?K?K?5?
Wazwaz was ahead going in with his pocket kings and better clubs, but Ferro still had a lot of live cards with his hearts and straight cards.
The flop of A?K?9? gave neither player a flush but it did give Wazwaz middle set of kings to further increase his lead. However, the runout of 3?J? gave Ferro the gutshot straight on the river to win the pot for the double-up.
