Five-Bet Shoving With Ace-Three

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

James St. Hilaire opened to 20,000 in the cutoff, Kristoffer Edberg three-bet to 48,000 on the button, and both blinds released. St. Hilaire four-bet to 108,000, Kristoffer wagered the maximum, moving all in for 469,000, and St. Hilaire called.

St. Hilaire: {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Edberg: {a-Spades}{3-Spades}

According to the PokerNews Odds Calculator, St. Hilaire was a 67 percent favorite to win preflop, and he remained ahead when the dealer fanned {3-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{9-Spades}. Edberg picked up a backdoor flush draw and added two extra outs to make trip threes, but the {k-Hearts} on the turn was a big red brick.

St. Hilaire's odds of winning the hand shot up above 88 percent heading to the river, but the {a-Hearts} spiked onto the felt, giving Edberg aces up. The Swede doubled to 960,000 chips, while St. Hilaire dropped down to 205,000.
