Bello Moves Into Second Place

Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Adam Weinraub raised to 55,000 with Q?J? hijack and Elvyn Bello called on the button holding K?Q?. Michael Nia flatted with A?J? in the big blind and the 8?5?10? flop was fanned out.
Action checked around to the K? turn, where Bello hit top pair. Nia and Weinraub both checked again, while Bello bet 85,000. Nia folded and Weinraub made the call.
The 3? river saw Weinraub fired out a bet of 125,000. Bello made the call and showed down the winning hand to take the pot.
