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 844 as Johnson bet and Nakache called all in with a grimace for his final 24,000 or so.

Elie Nakache: A953 All in
Marco Johnson: AA96

Johnson was ahead with aces but Nakache held the superior low draw with backdoor high potential. However, the board ran out 910, and with no low available, Johnson scooped with his aces to send Nakache to the rail.
