Pocket Aces Not Helping Punsri Today
Level 13
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Pocket aces is the hand everybody dreams of being dealt, but they haven't been working out so well for Punnat Punsri so far today.
Punsri opened under the gun and then called the button shove of David Coleman, who had 350,000 in his stack.
David Coleman: J♠10♠ 
Punnat Punsri: A♠A♣
Coleman was way, way behind, but had the kind of hand needed to crack an overpair. The flop of 5♥7♦9♥ did offer Coleman a way out with a gutshot, but it was Punsri who improved when the A♦ turn gave him top set.
Only an eight could save Coleman, and that's exactly what came as the 8♥ river gave him a straight.
