Johnson Dispatches Nakache
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Elie Nakache had a three-bet in front of him on the button before Marco Johnson came back over the top from the cutoff as he four-bet pot to 25,400, and Nakache called.
The two saw a flop of 8♥4♦4♣ as Johnson bet and Nakache called all in with a grimace for his final 24,000 or so.
Elie Nakache: A♣9♦5♦3♣
Marco Johnson: A♠A♦9♥6♣
Johnson was ahead with aces but Nakache held the superior low draw with backdoor high potential. However, the board ran out 9♣10♥, and with no low available, Johnson scooped with his aces to send Nakache to the rail.
