Madanzhiev Has Aces

Denise Pratt opened to 5,000 from early position and was called by Stoyan Madanzhiev from the cutoff. Daisuke Ogita jammed for 10,500 from the button, folding out he blinds. Pratt called, and then called again when Madanzhiev made it 18,500.

Pratt check-called for 4,000 on the 8♦8♥2♥ flop before the 9♥ turn checked through to the 3♣ river. Pratt checked, and Madanzhiev used up several timebanks, before betting 26,000. That left him with 500 behind, but he didn't have to risk it as Pratt folded.

Madanzhiev tabled A♥A♣ and bested Ogita's KxJx to score the knockout.
