Level 19
: Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Anatoly Zlotnikov raised to 325,000 in middle position, and Pieter Aerts three-bet to 625,000 in late position, leaving himself with 120,000 back. Zlotnikov made the call.
The flop came 6♠7♣8♣, and Zlotnikov check-called Aerts' all-in to put him at risk.
Pieter Aerts: 9♦9♠
Anatoly Zlotnikov: A♦2♠
Aerts was able to dodge the ace as the board ran out K♦, 7♠, earning him the much-needed double-up.
