Ace from Space for the Champ
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Espen Jorstad raised it up in early position and the button reraised to 45,000. The action was back on Jorstad who shipped all in for 147,000 and the button asked for a count before calling.
Espen Jorstad: A♦K♣
Opponent: 10♠10♥
It was a coin flip and the flop of 5♦3♣3♦ left the pocket tens in the lead. The 5♣ on the turn meant Jorstad was searching for six outs on the river and the A♥ peeled off as the tabled rumbled. Jorstad managed to survive and double-up as the money bubble approaches.
