Zaki Doubles
Level 17
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Zach Bruch was first to act and raised to 120,000. Justin Zaki on his left then took some time, before three-betting to 500,000, leaving 120,000 behind. It folded back to Bruch who moved all in, and Zaki made the call for his tournament life.
Justin Zaki: A♣J♦
Zach Bruch: K♣10♥
It was a fair fight, with Zaki in front with his ace high. The board would run out A♦J♣8♠7♥2♣ and Zaki would improve to two-pair to double up through Bruch.
