Acoba's Aggression Pays Off

From early position, Marie-Lizette Acoba raised to 450 and found one caller from late position. The blinds folded.

The flop came {9-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} and Acoba c-bet for 675.

"How much do you have behind?" Acoba's opponent asked; she then called.

The turn brought a {4-Diamonds} and Acoba wasted little time firing a second barrel - this time for 1,500 even. Her opponent mulled it over a bit but eventually landed on a fold.

Acoba is currently sitting pretty with a healthy stack of 8,000.
