Dato Gets Much Needed Pot
Level 30
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Andrea Dato opened to 240,000 from under the gun with A?10?. Gilles Simon and Jose Gonzalez Sanchez called from the blind with 9?9? and J?7?, respectively.
The 8?7?3? flop checked through to the A? turn, which gave Dato the lead with a pair of aces. Sanchez also had a flush draw to go with his pair of sevens.
The blinds checked to Dato again, and he fired out 400,000. Simon folded, but Sanchez stuck around to bring the pot to 1,640,000.
The 6? completed the board, and Dato was confirmed as the winner after Sanchez folded to a bet of 1,000,000.
