Medes Stays Alive

Level 33
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Action picked up with Cornel Medes moving all in out of the small blind during a raised pot.
The big blind folded and the original raiser folded, leaving Jose Carlos Brito left to act. Brito asked for a count, and the dealer confirmed Medes was in for 2,250,000.
Briton then called to put Medes at risk.
Cornel Medes: K?7?
Jose Carlos Brito: A?J?
The dealer fanned 10?10?2? on the flop, keeping Brito��s ace in the lead. The 7? on the turn, however, put Medes ahead.
Medes secured the winning hand when 5? appeared on the river to give him a full double up.
