Azure Hits a Miracle on the River
Level 15
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Level 5: 300/600, 600 ante
Julian Azure moved all in for 7,900 from the cutoff and Ken Hager called in the small blind.
Julian Azure: Q♥J♠
Ken Hager: A♥A♣
Azure had run into aces but got some outs on the K♣5♦9♣ flop with a straight draw. The turn was the 2♠, and the 10♣ river gave him his straight and a double up.
"That's the second time I've had them cracked," Hager lamented as he handed over the pot.
