Aces Not Enough for Sangannagari

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Sridhar Sangannagari
Sridhar Sangannagari

Sridhar Sangannagari had a wild experience in two hands, winning one in a walk and losing one on a tough beat that he'll remember for a long time.

In the first hand Peter Kamaras raised to 100,000 under the gun. Sangannagari three-bet all in from the cutoff.

This move seemed to catch the table off guard, as a tankitis spread like the flu.

Small blind Bruce Diamond was first up. He asked for extra time, and his tablemates all approved.

Diamond sat on his hand for a couple minutes trying to decide what to do. He even broke a rule by asking Sangannagari, "Would you do that with jacks?"

After getting yelled at by the dealer and the others in the hand, Diamond finally, and unhappily, folded. In doing so, he accidentally flashed his pocket queens QQ.

Anthony Harnden in the big blind was next. He took a little less time before deciding to fold.

Last on the list was Peter Kamaras, the original raiser. He thought about it and let it go as well.

Sangannagari didn't show.

On the very next hand, Yossi Maymon raised 250,000 under the gun. Sangannagari bumped it to 600,000 from middle position.

Action folded back to Maymon, who called.

The flop hit 8910. Maymon checked. Sangannagari shoved with 1,700,000 chips.

Maymon immediately called with a covering stack.

Sridhar Sangannagari: AAAll in
Yossi Maymon: QJ

After not getting any callers on the pocket kings he said he had the previous hand, Sangannagari waited until after the flop to shove on the next, and it cost him.

Maymon's flopped straight held through the turn and river Q5, and Sangannagari was out in 47th place.
