[user20283]

Nível 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

Our colleague from the WPT just informed us of a hand which saw Sergio Aido chip up nicely through former EPT winner Sebastian Pauli. The board showed when Pauli bet 3,000 into a pot of 4,500 after which Aido made it 8,200.

Pauli made the call and on the river the hit, which was checked by the German pro. Aido moved all in right away for 25,300, and this effectively put Pauli all in for 14,800.

After a while Pauli let go of his hand, and Aido chipped up nicely.
