Shunya Has the Better Ace
Level 14
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Shunya raised from the cutoff to 10,000 and then called a three-bet shove by the button for around 35,000 with the A♥Q♦. He was up against an inferior ace albeit suited, as the button tabled the A♣J♣.
The K♦Q♠5♥9♦K♣ runout kept Shunya ahead all the way and a few moments later, another table broke as the late night action continued to wreak havoc on Day 1a.
