Mariakis Moving Up

Wang Che Jung opened with a raise to 12,000. Matthew Wall made the call, and Michael Mariakis raised it up to 25,000. Both opponents called.

The flop came {A-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {6-Clubs}. Jung checked, and Wall led out with a bet of 25,000. Mariakis quickly called, and Jung ducked out.

The turn brought a repeat ace, the {A-Clubs}. Wall checked this time, and Mariakis wasted no time moving all in, sliding all 43,500 of his chips forward. Wall tanked for several minutes before letting his hand go. Mariakis showed the {A-Spades} and raked in a nice little pot.
