Gergeaux Doubles With Aces
Level 6
: Blinds 300/700, 700 ante
Action was on the turn in a reraised pot that was quite inflated by the time players piled in more bets. The board read 4♥Q♣8♠7♠ and Pierre Gergeaux led out with a bet of 15,000, which Mohamed Ait Chaib called.
On the J♥ turn, Gergeaux moved all in for 11,000 and Ait Chaib called. Gergeaux showed A♣A♦ for pocket aces and Ait Chaib threw his cards into the muck.
Confusion followed as the floor were called to discuss Ait Chaib mucking too early in the hand. In any case, the river was a blank and the pot was pushed over to Gergeaux, who doubled up his stack.
