Albeck Finds Aces at Crucial Moment

Frank Visser

Nível 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Samuel Albeck pushed in 280,000 chips on the button, leaving only 20,000 back. Alen Sabic put in the rest from the big blind and Albeck called.

Samuel Albeck: A♠A♣J♦10♦ All in
Alen Sabic: A♦J♠8♥4♦

The K♦7♦5♥ flop gave Sabic a gutshot straight draw and the nut flush draw to make it an even affair, but the 7♠ turn was of no help.

Albeck's aces held when the K♥ river double-paired the board, and he doubled up to nine big blinds.
