Kaufman Hits Unlikely 2 Pair and Takes the Lead

Level 31 : 80,000/160,000, 20,000 ante

Action folded to Brian Kaufman Esposito in the small blind and he raised to 535,000. Big blind Aeragan Arunan called and the 2 took a flop of {2-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{7-Clubs}.

With 1,210,000 in the middle, Kaufman bet 480,000. Arunan called to grow the pot to 2,170,000.

The {8-Spades} hit the turn and both players checked. The {9-Clubs} completed the board and Kaufman bet 1,580,000. Arunan tanked for a bit and eventually called.

Kaufman showed {2-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} and Arunan mucked.
