Fidanza Runs into Double Pocket Aces
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Players were already all in three-ways preflop. Steven Nichols was at risk from the small blind as was covered by both Bahar Musa from under the gun and Steven Nichols, the largest stack in play on the button.
Fabio Fidanza: 8♣9♣
Bahar Musa: A♦A♠
Steven Nichols: A♥A♣
Fidanza found a pair of nines on the 4♦9♦4♣ flop, but it wasn't good enough to crack both Aces, and he bricked on the 2♥, 3♣ runout. Fidanza made it through the bubble and took home a minimum cash.
Nichols chopped the pot with Musa and said "Nice hand sir".
