Zollo's Aces Good For a Double Up
Level 32
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
The action started with Christopher Zollo raising to 600,000 from the hi-jack, Paul Choi called from the big blind.
The flop revealed 9♣8♦3♦, Choi went all in. Zollo snap-called.
Christopher Zollo: A♦A♣
Paul Choi: Q♠9♦
Choi was looking for a nine or a queen to best Zollo's pair of aces but the 2♥ on the turn wasn't any help.
A 8♥ on the river wasn't able to help Choi claim Zollo's bounty and he doubled up.
