Zhou Cracks Persky's Aces
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
This hand was picked up on the turn of a board that read K♦5♠8♠K♥, with over 15,000 already in the middle.
Michael Persky led out with a bet of 10,000 from early position and was called by Jixin Zhou from the cutoff.
The 5♦ river resulted in a check from Persky. Zhou wanted it all, as she jammed for approximately 9,700. Persky shrugged and made the call.
"I got lucky," said Zhou as she rolled over K♠10♣ for trip kings.
Persky tapped the table and showed A♦A♣ for a pair of aces that were no good, as Zhou secured the double-up.
