Aces All Around
Level 20
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Nicholas Amicucci opened to 32,000 in late position and received an all-in shove from Konstantin Puchkov in the small blind for 285,000. Amicucci snap-called and tabled his hand immediately.
Konstantin Puchkov: A♦A♠
Nicholas Amicucci: A♥A♣
Puchkov was a bit surprised when Amicucci showed his hand, so much that he tabled his own pocket aces more slowly than the other. They both watched the dealer display the board K♠10♦6♦6♣Q♠ knowing what the result would be.
Somewhat anti-climactically, they just pulled their chips back as the dealer chopped the big blind and the ante between the two of them.
