Rybachenko Five-Bets Into Aces

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante
Andrei Nikonov and Sergey Rybachenko
Andrei Nikonov and Sergey Rybachenko

Andrei Nikonov raised to 60,000 preflop with the bullets, {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}. Sergei Rybachenko made it 150,000 with {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, his timing being a little off. Nikonov was obviously not going anywhere and made it 385,000 to play. Rybachenko then made a big five-bet bluff to 620,000 and Nikonov moved all in. Rybachenko instantly folded.
