Medvinsky Cracks Aces Twice in the Same Hand
Level 20
: 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
An unlikely hand just saved Vladimir Medvinsky from the rail in the final level of the day. With just over 200,000, he got it in preflop and found two other larger stacks also happy to put their tournament lives on the line. Both held pocket aces (one 
, one 
), while Medvinsky showed down 
.
Flop: 
Turn: 
River: 
- at which point the table let out a collective "whooooah" while they congratulated Medvinsky and both players with aces paid him off.
