Ajez Sticks It In Nearly Dead
Level 26
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Najeem Ajez opened to 555,000 from under the gun and Dennis Weiss three-bet to 1,905,000 on his left. The action folded back to Ajez who called to see a flop of Q♠Q♥6♥. Ajez checked to Weiss who continued with a bet of 1,200,000 and Ajez check-raised all in. Weiss called off his stack of 4,015,000 and the cards were on their backs.
Dennis Weiss: A♠A♥5♥2♣
Najeem Ajez: J♥10♠8♥5♠
Ajez had a flush draw but it was dead to the nut flush draw and pocket aces of Weiss. The turn brought the 10♥ to complete the flush for Weiss but it actually gave Ajez a single out to a straight flush. The river was the K♠ and Ajez was forced to pass over a large portion of his stack.
