One Pair Good for Paul Balzano

Dec 2, 2023

The board reads Diamond AClub 5Diamond 2Heart 7 with around 25,000 in the middle when Paul Balzano checks to his opponent who then bets 16,500. 

After a quick assessment of the opposing player’s stack, Balzano makes the call. 

On the river Spade J, Balzano checks, his opponent fires for 26,500, and Balzano makes the call. 

The player doesn’t appear too thrilled about being called and tables Club KHeart 10 for king-high while Balzano rolls over Heart AHeart 9 for a pair of aces to take down the sizeable pot. 

Paul Balzano – 197,000 (98 bb)
