Priestley on Right Side of Massive Cooler
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Sinead Priestley opened to 50,000 from middle position and Dmitry Yurasov three-bet to 150,000 from the hijack. Baris Caliskan called in the cutoff only for Priestley to move all in, covering both opponents. Yurasov opted to fold while Caliskan called off for roughly 700,000, putting himself at risk.
Baris Caliskan: Q♥Q♠
Sinead Priestley: A♠A♣
Yurasov let out a triumphant "Yes!", standing up from his seat as soon as he saw Priestley's aces and knew that he made the correct fold.
The board ran out 4♣4♦8♣6♠2♦. Priestley remained ahead with the best hand to take down a massive pot. Afterwards Yurasov would tell his tablemates that he had folded pocket kings.
