Ace-King Exposed Prematurely

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

William Rael opened under the gun to 80,000, before Clyde Maliauka to his left moved all in for 365,000. Yoon Choi tanked, then flatted from the cutoff, with James Hurley doing the same from the small blind. Rael got out of the way, and Maliauka exposed AK despite there still being action, albeit with a dry side pot.

On a flop of K108, Choi bet out for 125,000 when checked to, and Hurley called. Action sheepishly checked through on the A turn, and did the same on the 3 river. Maliauka reshowed his hand to claim the main pot, whereas Choi and Hurley split the side with 87 and 87, respectively.
