Kuntz Picks Up Aces to Double

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Marcia Kuntz
Marcia Kuntz

Christopher Selami raised to 1,200 in the hijack before Jason Badeaux, who had only just joined the field, three-bet to 2,500 in the cutoff. Marcia Kuntz then four-bet to 7,500 in the big blind, and only Badeaux called.

Kuntz bet 10,000 on the 7♦3♦8♠ flop and Badeaux called. Kuntz then moved all in for 20,000 on the K♣ turn, and Badeaux again quickly called.

Kuntz showed A♠A♥, while Badeaux had A♣K♦ for top pair. The river was the 6♥, and Kuntz doubled up as Badeaux was forced to hand over most of his stack on the first hand he had played.
