Ajez Cracks Lampropoulos' Aces

Level 5 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Nikolaos Lampropoulos, Najeem Ajez, and Chongxian Yang built a pot of around 60,000 as they went to a flop of 910Q.

All three players checked to the 2 turn, where Ajez bet 75,000 from under the gun. Yang called in the cutoff, while Lampropoulos called all in for his last 35,000.

Ajez then moved all in for 90,500 on the J river, and Yang folded. "Bad river for me," Ajez said as he showed KQJ9 for a straight. Lampropoulos tossed AA63 into the muck, and he headed off to the rail.
