How do you play Ace deuce?
The action is fast and sometimes insane as Joe Rahme found out when he raised to six times the big blind from under the gun with A K. He got two callers in Brian Wellman with a middle pocket pair and Ilan Miller with a dominated Ace two.
The flop produced the Ace which put paid to Wellman’s hand but it also suddenly made Miller’s hand a monster because the two was also in attendance. The board did not pair to give Joe two pair with a better kicker on the turn but did on the river… with a two!
Donkey call or a justifiable risk during the re-buy period? You make the call.
Full house for the A 2 and Rahme's hard-fought stack depleted. The battle continues.
