Zaki Wins the Race to Double

Level 15 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Joey Weissman opened to 55,000 from the cutoff, and it folded to the small blind Justin Zaki, who three-bet to 330,000, leaving just 75,000 behind. Weissman made the call.

Both players checked to the river on the 5K6JJ runout, before Zaki bet his last 75,000, which Weissman called.

Zaki tabled AK for top pair, and Weissman tossed 99 into the muck to give Zaki the double up on the bubble.

Level 14 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Joao Simao
Joao Simao

Joey Weissman was the first to act, and raised to 45,000, which was called by the big blind Joao Simao.

The flop came 224 and Simao checked to Weissman, who bet out 20,000. Simao took some time, before raising all in for his stack of 260,000, which Weissman snap-called.

Joao Simao: 77 All in
Joey Weissman: AA

When Weissman called Simao said "I guess I have two outs?" and Weissman confirmed by tabling his aces.

Simao then said "Why didn't I fold pre like I wanted to" before adding "come on SEVEN!".

The dealer obliged and instantly put out the 7 on the turn, and the 5 on the river to give Simao a double up on the stone bubble.
