Lucky Split for Alina
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
After he lost a 200,000 chip-pot with queens against kings a few hands earlier, Zsolt Szabo called from middle position after Michel Molenaar opened to 15,000 from under the gun.
Everybody folded to Mario Alina in the big blind, who squeezed to 62,000. Molenaar folded, but Szabo four-bet all-in with the biggest stack of the table. Alina snap-called with his 230,000 chips.
Mario Alina: K?K?
Zsolt Szabo: A?K?
Alina swore with an ace appeared on a flop of Q?4?A?. However, he was lucky enough to find the 10? on the turn and the J? on the river to split the pot and stay in the tourmanent.
