Minieri and Martin Run Into Aces Before Break

Level 8 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Dario Minieri will have to settle with $16,000
Dario Minieri will have to settle with $16,000

Just before the break we had two players run into aces and get eliminated.

First Dario Minieri was eliminated after he three-bet shoved for 9,000 on the button. Chris Klodnicki re-shoved for almost 25,000 from the big blind and Marko Neumann, the initial raiser, got out of the way.

Minieri: {5-Clubs}{4-Hearts}
Klodnicki: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}

Minieri received a little help from the {10-Spades}{2-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} flop, but the {2-Hearts} on the turn left him with only two outs and he did not improve with the {10-Clubs} on the river.

A few hands later on an adjacent table, Ville Wahlbeck opened to 1,000 before Jesse Martin three-bet jammed for 10,900. Action folded to Darren Elias in the big blind who tank-called and Wahlbeck showed {2-}{2-} before folding.

Martin: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}
Elias: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}

Again, the flop was kind to the underdog: {k-Clubs}{9-Spades}{7-Clubs}. However, like Minieri, Martin couldn't improve further when the turn ({3-Diamonds}) and river ({4-Hearts}) were both blanks.
