Aces Cracked Cruelly
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Matthew Glantz open-shoved from middle position for 230,000. Lech Boltryk reshoved his 480,000 from the button, leaving big blind Yer Vang in the tank. Eventually, he announced, "Let's gamble," and put in the call.
Matthew Glantz: K♥10♦
Lech Boltryk: A♥A♠
Yer Vang: J♦3♦
The J♠7♥6♠ flop was already sweatier than Boltryk's aces would've liked, with the 9♥ turn even worsening his equity. The 3♣ river improved Vang to two pair, sealed a double knockout for Vang, and sent both Glantz and Boltryk packing.
