Budai Wakes Up With Aces to Nearly Triple
Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Konstantinos Vatseris raised to 21,000 from early position and Alexandru Budai called before Iulian Andrei Bleau on the button moved all in for 160,000. Vatseris called, and Budai snap-called for his last 179,000.
Iulian Andrei Bleau: K♥10♠
Alexandru Budai: A♥A♣
Konstantinos Vatseris: Q♦Q♥
Budai was far ahead with his aces and moved further in front on the A♠3♥J♥ flop with top set. Bleau needed one of the remaining queens to complete a straight but couldn't find one on the 2♥ turn or 10♦ river and Budai doubled up off Vatseris and sent Bleau to the rail.
