Goulder Hits Running Cards to Crack Yusupov's Aces
Level 30
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Alexander Goulder shoved for 14,500,000 from early position and Mekan Yusupov called from the cutoff.
Alexander Goulder: A♠9♠
Mekan Yusupov: A♥A♦
Goulder had shoved right into Yusupov's bullets and was likely to be going to the cashier's desk very shortly. The J♠3♥7♥ flop meant only running cards could save Goulder.
The 8♠ on the turn was the best card in the deck for Goulder as he picked up straight and flush draws. The river completed one of those said draws, as the 2♠ fell to give Goulder the nuts, cracking the aces of Yusupov.
