Nitsche Slow Plays Aces
Level 11
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Ami Barer raised to 22,000 on the button with 10♣9♦ and Dominik Nitsche just called in the big blind with A♠A♣. The flop came J♥8♥5♣ and both players checked to the K♥ on the turn.
Nitsche checked again and Barer dropped in a bet of 28,000. Nitsche used a time bank and then check-raised all in, forcing Barer to fold his straight draw.
