Chokron Cracks Aces as Asik Exits the Tournament
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
After a series of raises, Antoine Asik was at risk for 55,700 against Mickael Chokron, while Dylan Gessel mucked his 10x10x face-up.
Antoine Asik: A♣A♦
Mickael Chokron: Q♣Q♠
Asik had Chokron dominated in a preflop cooler, and the J♠9♦9♥ flop looked promising. The 10♥ hit the turn, giving Chokron some extra outs with a straight draw, and the 8♥ river completed his straight as Asik walked away from the table.
