Menezes Picks Off Medved to Double
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Pablo Menezes bet 4,700 from middle position on a flop of 8?7?5? and Eric Medved called in the big blind, as did Leonidas Georgopoulos under the gun.
The turn was the 5? and Medved led out for 7,100. Both opponents called to the 6? river, where Medved bet 25,000. Georgopoulos quickly folded, but Menezes called for his last 14,300.
Medved showed A?7? for two pair, but Menezes had 9?9? to win the pot and double up.
