Aces in the Blinds
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Everybody folded to Norbert Ale in the small blind who raised to 2,000. Konstantin Faerber defended from the big blind, then quickly called when Ale continued for 2,500 on a flop of 10♥Q♦7♦.
Ale fired a second barrel of 3,500 on the turn 2♣, and Faerber called again. But on the river 3♠, the German player folded after Ale bet 10,000.
Faerber was probably right to do so, because Ale revealed A♠A♣.
