Gurevich's Aces Stay Best
Level 5
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Garry Gurevich from the cutoff was facing a check-raise to 6,000 from the big blind on a flop of J♥8♠2♦, and Gurevich called.
On the Q♥ turn, the big blind led again for 12,500 and Gurevich stuck around with a call once again.
The big blind then checked the K♥ river, and Gurevich was content to do the same.
Big Blind: J♦10♠
Garry Gurevich: A♥A♣
Gurevich's opponent had flopped top pair but the overpair was still the best hand at showdown as the aces held on for Gurevich to pad his stack.
