Moaref Cracks Sukkar's Aces

A short-stacked Emad Moaref got his last chips into the middle with {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} but Billy Sukkar woke up with pocket rockets in the big blind and made the instant call.

The flop was a good one for Moaref when it landed {5-Spades}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs} to give him an open-ended straight draw but the turn was even better when the {6-Clubs} arrived to give Moaref the lead with a set.

The river bricked the {10-Clubs} to double Moaref to 14,000, with Sukkar dropping to 28,000.
