Tony Aziz raised to 5,000 in early position and received two callers before Wael Sarkis three-bet to 20,000 on the button. Only Aziz called.
The flop came J♦2♦8♦ and Sarkis continued for 25,000. Aziz called and the 7♥ turn was checked through.
The river was the 7♣ and Sarkis bet another 60,000. Aziz tanked into the break before calling as Sarkis showed A♦A♣. Aziz mucked A♠J♠ and Sarkis raked in the big pot.
