Straight Saves Edlin's Aces
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Maurice Hawkins raised to 3,000 in the cutoff. Andrew Edlin, seated next to Hawkins on the button, hesitated for a bit, then raised to 9,000.
Robert Holben, playing from the big blind, popped it to 22,000 chips with a four-bet.
Hawkins bowed out. Edlin went all in for 34,100. Holben called.
Andrew Edlin: A♥A♣
Robert Holben: Q♥Q♦
The runout Q♣J♠10♦K♣3♥ was dramatic, with Holben flopping a set and Edlin turning a straight to save his aces from being cracked.
