Carrel Runs into Aces

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante
Charles Carrel

We got to the table as the board read {5-Spades}{10-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{5-Hearts} and Charlie Carrel had been check-raised by Alexander Kuzmin of Russia. Carrel had initially bet 3,200 into a pot of roughly 7,000, but Kusmin's raise was a cool 10,000. Carrel agonised over a call for a long while: "It's such a weird spot for you to check raise..."

He eventually made the call but mucked his hand as Kuzmin rolled over {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds} for the winning hand
