Bujtas Hits the Rail as Aerts' Heater Continues

Tyler Foran

Level 14 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Pieter Aerts opened 40,000 in the cutoff and Laszlo Bujtas shoved for 360,000 in the small blind. The big blind folded, and Aerts made the call quickly.

Laszlo Bujtas: A♥J♣
Pieter Aerts: 6♥6♠

It was a race but the 9♣6♣3♦ put Aerts way ahead with a set of sixes. The 8♣ turn gave Bujtas some hope though with a flush draw, but the 3♥ river was no help and Aerts improved to a full house.
