Peng Doubles With Aces
Level 37
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Meng Dian Peng opened to 4,100,000 from under the gun, which was around half his stack. Michael Monroig three-bet to 7,000,000 from the hijack and action went back to Peng.
Peng pushed in his chips and was at risk for 8,100,000, and Monroig called.
Meng Dian Peng: A♥A♣
Michael Monroig: A♠J♠
The 2♣Q♠6♣ flop was good for Peng, although there were some backdoor flush draw outs for Monroig. The K♦ turn meant Monroig needed just a ten to take the pot, but the K♣ river saw Peng get the full double.
