Buckley Wins With Aces

Level 28 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Mark Buckley raised to 175,000 from under the gun and both Matthias Tikerpe, in the cutoff, and Fabiano Kovalski, in the big blind, called.

The flop came down {2-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{6-Hearts}, and Buckley bet again after Kovalski had checked. Tikerpe called, and Kovalski folded.

The turn brought the {4-Spades}, and Buckley opted to check-call a 325,000 bet from Tikerpe before the river card was revealed to be the {10-Clubs}.

Both players checked to a showdown, and Buckley took the pot after he tabled {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts} for the overpair to the board.
