Championship: Sterling Savill Doubles Through Peter Fellows

$3,500 WPT RRPO Championship
Prize Pool:  $4,592,000  |  Structure  |  Payouts  |  Results
Level 20:  10,000/20,000 with a 20,000 ante
Players Remaining:  98 of 1,435

Peter Fellows raised to 45,000 in middle position, Sterling Savill reraised to 150,000 on the button (leaving 5,000 behind – there is a payjump at 97th), Fellows reraised all in, and Savill pretty much said he had aces before he waited a bit and called all in.

Fellows:  AsKd
Savill:  AdAc

The board ran out QsJs3d5d6h, safe for Savill to double up.

“Make sure to put in there that he slowrolled with aces,” joked Matthew Wantman.

“Where’s the justice?” chuckled Jason Mercier.

Sterling Savill  –  360,000  (18 bb)
