Jontulovic Scoops With Aces; Sahin Folds Queens
Bogdan Jontulovic made it 4,500 on the button, and Amir Saeid jammed for 66,500 from the small blind. Bulent Sahin cold-called from the big blind and then Jontulovic ripped it in, covering Sahin.
Sahin had about 105,000 left in his stack and went into the tank. Visibly distressed by his situation, he ended up folding while showing Q♣Q♠.
Amir Saeid: K♦J♦ 
Bogdan Jontulovic: A♠A♦
Jontulovic had the goods, but Saeid had a hand with a lot of potential that could help him to triple up.
However, the 6♦5♣3♣ flop was no help for Saeid, and he needed running cards to survive.
Saeid was drawing dead after the 5♥ turn and the A♣ river just improved Jontulovic to an unnecessary boat.
Saeid vacated the tournament area, Jontulovic dragged in the pot, and the rest of the table congratulated Sahin on his fold.
