Wintersberger on the Right Side of a Cooler
Level 10
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Chandru Alt came in for a raise to 5,000 from the hijack before David Wintersberger three-bet to 11,000 out of the cutoff. Andrea Roner four-bet to 30,000, which got Alt to fold. Wintersberger five-bet jammed, and Roner called for his stack of about 100,000.
Andrea Roner: K♦K♣ 
David Wintersberger: A♦A♣
It was poker's classic preflop cooler of kings versus aces, with Roner being on the wrong side of it.
Both players improved to full houses on the 3♦7♣3♠9♣3♥ runout, but it was Wintersberger's treys full of aces that won the pot, and sent Roner to the rail.
