Link Picks Up Aces Again
Level 35
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Sarah Link opened from under the gun to 600,000 and Stepan Budac called in the big blind.
The flop of J♥7♣J♠ hit the table and Budac check-called a bet of 400,000 from Link to the 2♠ turn. Budac decided to lead out for 800,000, and Link quickly called.
A 2♦ double-paired the board on the river and both players checked it down, where Budac showed king-high with K♦Q♥. Link had that beat as she showed a pair of aces with A♥A♦, which earned her a few more chips.
