Metaal's Ace is Best
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Steve O'Dwyer opened to 30,000 from the cutoff and was called by Govert Metaal on the button.
Metaal called a 26,000 bet from O'Dwyer on the Q?6?Q? flop and then a 75,000 bet from O'Dwyer on the A? turn.
Both players checked down on the 4? river and O'Dwyer tabled A?4? for aces-up. Metaal turned over A?J? for the same two pair with a jack kicker and was sent the pot.
