Petrache Cracks Aces to Double Stack
Level 29
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Iulian-Petrut Petrache open-shoved from the hijack for 1,125,000 and Tuan Le isolated from the button. The rest of the table folded and players flipped their cards, with Petrache at risk.
Iulian-Petrut Petrache: A♥3♥
Tuan Le: A♦A♠
Le had picked up pocket aces again and Petrache was crushed preflop. The flop came 4♦10♥7♦ and Petrache was still badly behind. He stood up to take his leave as the 7♥ turn was dealt, bringing him a flush draw.
The river came the 8♥ and Petrache completed his flush, cracking Le's aces and doubling up his stack.
