Garay Sticks Around
Level 15
: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Allen Alvarez shoved from under the gun and action folded to George Karmires in the cutoff who asked for a count. The dealer confirmed Alvarez had 71,000 behind. Karmires folded but Edsel Garay called for the 22,000 he had behind in the small blind. The big blind quickly got out of their way.
Edsel Garay: 
Allen Alvarez: 
The board ran out 
for Garay to hold with the pocket pair and double up.
