Galiana Wakes Up With Aces to Triple
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Thanh Nguyen raised to 80,000 in early position and DJ Sharma called in the hijack. [Removed:658] then moved all in for 540,000 in the big blind, and both Nguyen and Sharma called.
The flop came J♦6♦8♦ and Nguyen bet 500,000, chasing Sharma from the pot and leaving himself heads-up with Galiana.
Antonio Valiana: A♦A♣
Thanh Nguyen: K♠K♥
Nguyen found himself with just one out, as Valiana turned over aces with a flush draw. The turn was the 8♠, while the 5♦ river gave Valiana his flush and the triple-up.
