Aces vs. Aces

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

The player under the gun limped in, Ylon Schwartz was next to act and did the same, and Christopher Haydt raised to 275 from the cutoff. Both blinds called, as did both limpers, and five players saw a flop of {8-Hearts}{7-Spades}{7-Clubs}. Action checked around to Haydt, and he bet 1,100. The blinds folded, the under-the-gun player called, and Schwartz folded.

The turn brought the {4-Clubs} and the under-the-gun player checked. Haydt moved all in for 3,625 and his opponent called to put himself at risk.

Both players tabled pocket aces, but Haydt held {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{7-Hearts} for trip sevens, and his opponent had {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for an open-ended straight draw. The river changed nothing and Haydt took the pot to eliminate his opponent.
