Aces Over Aces for Pollet
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Truquens raised to 12,000 from under the gun, then Christophe Pollet three-bet from the button to 70,000 to force his opponent to go all-in. The blinds folded, and Truquens called for his last 40,000 chips.
Truquens: A♠A♦
Christophe Pollet: A♣A♥
Both players smiled when they flipped over their cards. But Truquens' smile disappeared when the dealer fanned a flop of Q♣10♣6♣ which gave a flush draw to Pollet.
The turn 3♥ didn't change anything, but the 4♣ completed the flush, leading to Truquens' elimination.
