Tantillo Gets Away From Cracked Aces

Level 33 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Fausto Tantillo picked up {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs} from under the gun and raised to 600,000. Simeon Spasov came along with {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}, as did Maxime Chilaud in the big blind holding {k-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}.

The flop came {q-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{9-Spades}, giving Spasov a set of nines to beat Tantillo's aces. Chilaud and Tantillo checked, allowing Spasov to bet 750,000.

Both opponents called to the {3-Spades} turn and checked to Spasov again. Spasov this time bet 2,250,000 and Chilaud quickly got rid of his top pair.

Tantillo tanked for a moment before turning over his aces and showing them to Spasov before they headed into the muck.
