Zekster's Boat Sends Two to the Rail

Igor Zektser limped from the cutoff and Gary Friedman raised the 16,000 out of the smal blind with just 1,000 behind. John Hennigan called from the big blind, but Zekster limp-raised to 64,000. Friedman put in his last 1,000, and Hennigan made the call also.

Once Hennigan saw the flop come down 8♦8♠A♠, he jammed for his last 35,000. Zekster instantly called and the cards were revealed.

Gary Friedman: Q♠4♦3♣3♠2♦ All in
John Hennigan: A♦6♣4♥3♦2x All in
Igor Zektser: A♥A♣K♣5♥2♥

Zekster had flopped aces full and would eliminate two players if he could fade the low draw coming in. The remainder of the board ran out Q♦9♥ and Zekster won the pot, busting both Hennigan and Friedman.
