Estes Runs Into Bommarito's Aces
Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Michael Estes in the small blind and Joseph Bommarito in early position got all their chips in the middle before the flop.
Michael Estes: A♥Q♠
Joseph Bommarito: A♣A♠
Bommarito had woken up with aces to leave Estes at risk, and the 6♥J♥8♣5♠9♦ board kept him in the lead to secure the pot. The stacks were counted down, and Bommarito had Estes' remaining 85,000 narrowly covered to send him to the rail.
"I only waited three hours for them," Bommarito said.
