Major Takes from Mahler
Level 25
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
John Major raised to 160,000 on the button and Brian Mahler defended in the big blind.
The flop came 6♦2♦A♠ and Mahler check-called a bet of 90,000 from Major, bringing the J♦ turn, where both players checked.
On the 2♠ river, Mahler led out for a bet of 275,000 and Major thought for a moment before making the call.
Major tabled A♣8♣, for two pair, aces and deuces, besting the 9♦9♥ of Mahler.
