Aces Cracked Twice

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Two hands from the feature table, both involving Pasquale Grimaldi and both saw aces getting cracked.

In the first Julia Vassort was all-in for 104,000 with {A-Spades}{A-Clubs} from under-the-gun+1 and Grimaldi, who had 180,000 total, made the call with {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}. The {5-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{9-Spades}{10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} board meant Grimaldi flopped a set and Vassort was eliminated.

A couple of hands later Grimaldi opened with {A-Spades}{A-Hearts} and then called after Gheorghe Gradinaru moved all-in for 209,000 with {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}. The {8-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{6-Spades} board gave Grandinaru the win and boosted him to 437,000 whilst Grimaldi is down to 83,000.

A few hands later Grimaldi was out when his K-6 lost out to Florian Montes' K-Q.
