Plenty of Action Leads to Naoun More than Doubling Up

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Aurelien Russo started the action with a raise to 1,500 in early position. Samy Salah three-bet to 4,500 on his left and Leonardo Patacconi four-bet shoved all in for 10,600 in the hijack. Adel Naoun flat-called from the cutoff and Milos Skrbic made a tough laydown on the button. Aurelien also tanked for a bit before folding as well. Salah five-bet ripped all in and Naoun called off his stack of 27,600.

Leonardo Patacconi: 99
Adel Naoun: AA
Samy Salah: AK

The board ran out Q10278 and Naoun's pocket aces held on for a double-up plus the elimination of Patacconi. Skrbic and Russo both claimed they folded pocket jacks after the hand.
