Tartaglia Cracks Aces
Level 7
: 300/600, 100 ante
James Obst and Christian Harder have been eliminated while Tony Tartaglia, who had spent the last few levels with an above-average stack already, won a big pot after cracking aces to soar further. After the hand was over, Tartaglia walked over to Amanda De Cesare to bring the good news before heading back to his seat with new table neighbor and fellow big stack Paul Michaelis.
In a three-bet pot for 3,500 to the 
flop, Tartaglia had gotten into a raising war with the player from two seats over and ultimately jammed to receive a quick call and discover the pocket aces of the opponent. Tartaglia still had outs with the 
and got there thanks to the 
turn and 
river run out.
