Oeseburg Runs Into Powell's Bigger Ace
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Alexander Powell led out for 6,500 from the small blind on a flop of A♣2♥7♣ before Matthew Oeseburg raised to 14,000 under the gun. Powell then moved all in, and Oeseburg called for his last 25,000.
Matthew Oeseburg: A♥J♥
Alexander Powell: A♠K♠
Both players had flopped top pair, but Powell was ahead with his king-kicker and poised for the knockout. Oeseburg couldn't catch up on the 6♦ turn or 9♠ river, and he was sent to the rail.
