Labat Gets Nearly Max Value with Aces
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Gerald Karlic opened to 1,800 from under the gun and was called by a player in middle position. Antoine Labat three-bet to 6,100 on the button and only Karlic called to see a flop of 8♦7♣3♥.
Karlic checked to Labat who continued with a bet of 4,200 and Karlic called. The turn was the Q♦ and Karlic check-called another bet of 16,000 from Labat.
The 2♦ completed the board and Karlic checked for the third time. Labat pushed out a bet of 34,500, leaving just a single chip behind. Karlic flicked in a call and Labat showed A♥A♦ for the best hand.
