The Battle of (A)Arons

Level 15 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Aron Dermer raised from the small blind and Aaron Sacks defended from the big blind.

On the {9-Spades}{8-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop, Dermer led out, Sacks raised and was called.

Dermer then check-called both the {6-Hearts} turn and {5-Spades} river.

Sacks turned over {J-Clubs}{8-Spades} for a pair of eights with a jack kicker but Dermer showed {K-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} for the same pair with a higher kicker and took down the pot.

In the next hand, Dermer raised on the button, Sacks three-bet from the small blind, and Dermer called.

Sacks led out on every street of the {A-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Spades}{J-Hearts} board and Dermer followed all the way.

Sacks flipped up {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} for a pair of aces and won the hand.
