Rabichow Gets the Max with Aces

Level 5 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Dan Smith opened the button to 8,000 before Kevin Rabichow three-bet to 45,000 from the small blind. In the big blind, Matthew Sabia put in a cold four-bet to 113,000. Smith quickly folded and Rabichow elected to call.

On the 642 flop, Rabichow checked to Sabia who continued for 72,000 and Rabichow put in the call.

The 8 turn checked through to the K river which saw Rabichow check for a third time. Sabia used a time bank before he announced a bet of 220,000. Rabichow would then check-jam for 327,000 total, sending Sabia into the tank who was playing a slightly bigger stack. He eventually decided to flick in the call.

Kevin Rabichow: AA All in
Matthew Sabia: KJ

Rabichow got the max with his aces after Sabia paired his king on the river, and he dragged a massive pot as he left Sabia on fumes.
