Saracoglu Gets It All
Level 14
: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Mekan Atayev open-jammed for 175,000 from the hijack, after which Atilla Saracoglu quickly reshoved for 330,000 in the cutoff. It folded to Kevin Houghton in the big blind, who also tossed in a call, revealing the cards.
Mekan Atayev: K♦Q♠
Atilla Saracoglu: A♠A♣
Kevin Houghton: 8♥8♣
The J♣10♣7♠ flop was a sweaty one, giving both Atayev and Houghton outs. The J♠ turn removed some of Atayev's outs, while the K♣ river changed nothing.
Saracoglu scooped the pot with his aces, sending Atayev to the rail and denting Houghton's stack.
