Soverel Finds an Ace
Level 11
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Sam Soverel raised to 20,000 from the cutoff, and Ihor Popyk three-bet all in on the button for 72,000. It folded back to Soverel who made the call.
Ihor Popyk: Q♠Q♣ 
Sam Soverel: A♣6♣
Popyk was in a great spot to double up, but when the board ran out 5♥7♠A♠A♥J♥ Soverel improved to trip aces to take the pot and eliminate Popyk.
