Zeidan Wakes Up With Aces Near the Bubble
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Stylianos Christodoulou raised to 10,000 in early position as action folded to Alain Zeidan in the small blind who moved all in for 66,500. Florian Duta gave it some thought but ultimately mucked his big blind, while Christodoulou snap-called.
Alain Zeidan: A♣A♥
Stylianos Christodoulou: J♣J♥
Zeidan was a big favorite with his aces to double up as the flop came K♥3♣K♦, followed by the A♦ turn as he made a full house to leave Christodoulou drawing dead. The inconsequential river was the 7♣ and Zeidan survived.
Jelle Moene is also at this table with a healthy stack of around 400,000.
