ANZ Player of the Year Wide Open with Aston Gone

With a limp from the under-the-gun player, Anthony Aston would raise it up to 3,200 one spot to their left. Laurynas Levinskas then put in a three- bet to 6,400 on the button. Action folded back to Aston who re-raised to 16,400 but Levinskas immediately moved all in. Aston started the hand with about 30,000 in chips, but with half of his stack already in the middle, he quickly called off the rest.

Levinskas: {j-Clubs}

Aston:

There was obviously a dynamic between these two players as the aggression of Levinskas saw his jacks get action from Aston with his ace-jack.

Aston was looking for an ace to survive, and with ANZ POTY contender Mishel Anunu watching on from the rail, the board ran out {2-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {8-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} . Aston is out as the Lithuanian is back up to nearly 100,000.
