Capitan's Aces Hold Up

Level 21 : 15,000/30,000, 0 ante

Bogdan Capitan

Ben Yu opened with a pot-sized bet of 150,000 in the cutoff and Bogdan Capitan re-potted to 345,000 in the small blind. Yu shoved all in and Capitan called off his remaining stack.

Bogdan Capitan: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Ben Yu: {j-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{7-Spades}

The flop came {k-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{3-Spades} and Capitan's pair of aces was still way out front. The {9-Spades} on the turn gave Yu a pair and Capitan had a sweat on his hands. The river landed the {10-Hearts} and Yu whiffed on all his two pair draws as Capitan scored a double up.
