Alcinder Scoops His Way to a Double

Brett Slezak
Brett Slezak
Level 26 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Matthew Bretzfield opened from the cutoff before Christopher Alcindor potted from the button, and Bretzfield called.

With almost 1,400,000 in the middle, the two checked through on the 8♦5♥2♥ flop.

On the 9♦ turn, Bretzfield led for pot and Alcindor called all-in, which was for 1,725,000 total, including the preflop bet.

Christopher Alcindor: A♦A♣K♦7♠4♣ All in
Matthew Bretzfield: A♥J♣10♦10♣2♠

Alcindor had aces with a made seven-low along with a flush draw. Bretzfield had tens with an open-ended and no low.

The river was the Q♦, completing Bretzfield's straight but giving Alcindor the nut flush, and he scooped to double in a huge one.
