Cetiner's Aces Help Him Double; Zerjav Busts
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Serhat Cetiner raised 5,000 from the hijack before Uri Reichenstein three-bet the button to 16,500. Blaz Zerjav cold four-bet ripped it for 97,000 out of the small blind, and Cetiner made the call for his stack of 95,000. Reichenstein folded and the cards were turned over.
Serhat Cetiner: A♠A♥ 
Blaz Zerjav: 8♣8♥
Cetiner had the goods with pocket aces and would leave Zerjav with literally a chip and a chair if he won the pot.
The dealer produced a runout of 4♣10♠Q♠3♠6♦ and Cetiner's aces held up, earning him the double-up.
Zerjav was unable to turn his last 1,000 into a miraculous spin up, and was eliminated a few hands later.
