Aces Hold for Iemolo

Level 1 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

On a board of {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{7-Hearts}, John Iemolo fired in a bet of 35,000 into the pot of 87,000 and his opponent jammed his entire stack into the middle.

Iemolo called and both hands were tabled.

Opponent: {q-Spades}{j-Spades}
John Iemolo, {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}

Iemolo was ahead with his aces and managed to fade his opponent's open-ended straight draw as the {9-Clubs} hit the river. After counting the stacks it was determined both players had exactly 118,000 in chips and his opponent was sent to the payout desk.
