Alvarez Busts Aulds
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Victor Alvarez began the hand with an open to 800 from early position. Kellan Kemp called from the next seat over, but Scott Aulds had other plans as he jammed for his final 5,500 from the small blind. Alvarez wasted no time making the call, while Kemp made the fold.
Scott Aulds: Q♥J♠
Victor Alvarez: Q♠Q♣
Alvarez had Aulds in rough shape as they took a flop.
The flop had Aulds calling for a king when it came 10♣A♦A♥, but Alvarez was still in a strong position to score the knockout.
The J♣ turn paired up Aulds, but it made it so the king would be a chop.
Aulds was unable to find a chop or a jack to keep his tournament hopes alive when the 4♥ came on the river to award Alvarez the knockout.
