Kratochvil Scores Double Knockout With Aces
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Vojtech Kratochvil opened to 1,600 from middle position and action folded to Tekeshi Takahashi in the small blind, who shoved for approximately 26,000. Just behind him, Fabian Rolli also shoved for a bit less and Kratochvil called to put both players at risk.
Fabian Rolli: A♦K♦
Tekeshi Takahashi: A♥K♠
Vojtech Kratochvil: A♠A♣
It was the best possible scenario for Kratochvil, who was an overwhelming favorite headed to the flop.
The 5♦6♥7♦ flop gave Rolli hope with a flush draw, but the 9♥ turn and 3♥ river bricked out and Kratochvil collected the rest of both Takahashi's and Rolli's chips.
