Hedley, Tulepbergenov Build a Huge Side Pot; Kamar Takes Out Aoun
Anatoly Nikitin was already all in as Azamat Tulepbergenov and Andrew Hedley went to a flop of J♣A♣7♠. Hedley bet 50,000 from the button, Tulepbergenov raised to 155,000 in the cutoff, and Hedley called.
The turn was the 10♦ and Tulepbergenov checked to Hedley who bet 385,000. Tulepbergenov tanked for several minutes as he counted out the chips to call and shuffled them in his hand before putting them in the middle.
He also checked the J♦ river and Hedley checked back this time. Nikitin showed Q♣4♣ and got up from his seat, Tulepbergenov had K♣5♣ for a missed flush draw, while Hedley had K♠Q♠ for a straight to win the pot and send Nikitin to the rail.
At the same time at another table, Carlos Aoun was all in for around 200,000 from the button and up against Fady Kamar under the gun.
Carlos Aoun: 5♥5♦
Fady Kamar: 10♦10♥
The board ran out K♦Q♠9♥A♣7♠ and Kamar's tens sent Aoun and his fives to the rail.
