Mendes Scores an Early Knockout
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Dan Petrea moved all in from under the gun for 455,000 and Johny Mendes moved all in on top from the button with a covering stack to put Petrea at risk.
Dan Petrea: A?Q?
Johny Mendes: J?J?
It was a classic flip that Mendes pulled ahead of on the 8?4?5? flop. Mendes spiked a set on the J? turn leaving Petrea calling dead. The 7? river was inconsequential and Petrea was sent to the rail while Mendes collected a decent pot.
