Naydenov Finds Aces at the Right Time
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Simeon Naydenov got his stack of around 80,000 into the middle from the button, with Juan Vecino trying to bust him out of the hijack.
Simeon Naydenov: A♣A♠
Juan Vecino: 6♣6♦
Vecino needed to come from way behind to crack the aces of Naydenov and send him home earlier than he would have liked.
The J♠5♦7♦K♣5♣ runout was produced by the dealer, providing no sweat for Naydenov's bullets and he earned the double-up at the expense of Vecino.
