Baghdalian Cracks Aces
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
The hand began with a raise by Joseph Baghdalian from the cutoff before Jonathan Malcolm re-raised to 13,500 on the button. Baghdalian called and sent them to a flop heads-up.
Malcolm continued on the 6♦Q♦7♥ flop, but Baghdalian quickly shoved for 36,200 and was snap called by Malcolm to be at risk.
Joseph Baghdalian: 6♣6♥
Jonathan Malcolm: A♦A♠
Malcolm had Baghdalian in a world of trouble preflop, but the roles were reversed after the flop as Baghdalian spiked a set to take a big lead in the hand.
The 5♠ turn and the 9♠ river were bricks in favor of Baghdalian as he scooped a big pot.
