Aden Rides Broadway Over 1,000,000 Mark

Level 21 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Early position opened to 60,000, getting calls from Jason Aden in middle position and the big blind.

On the {j-Spades}{a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} flop, the preflop aggressor continued for 130,000. After some deliberation, Aden jammed for about 450,000. The big blind folded. His opponent called him, covering him by just 15,000, less than a single big blind.

Jason Aden: {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

Aden had flopped the nut straight, and his opponent was in rough shape. He would need runner-runner to try and make a full house or quads, or a straight on the board for a chop. Those outs were all entirely erased as a brick arrived on the turn in the form of the {6-Clubs}. The {a-Spades} hit on the river, improving the opponent to trips, but it was far from enough to beat Aden's straight. Aden scooped the pot to double up and left his opponent's stack decimated.
