Pateychuk Doubles Up With Aces
Level 12
: 2,500/5,000, 625 ante
Felipe "Pantoja RO" Pantoja raised to 10,000 from under the gun, and Andrey "ThePateychuk" Pateychuk three bet it to 25,000. Next to act, Stephen "penguy2" Kehoe put in a four bet to 40,000. Action folded back around to Pateychuk, and he five bet shoved for nearly 138,000.
Kehoe put him at risk holding 
, but he was miles behind the pocket aces of Pateychuk. Kehoe hit a king on the flop, but wasn't able to catch a third one to turn the tide. With that pot, Pateychuk more than doubled up to just under 300,000.
