Nemeth Flops an Ace
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 150,000 ante
Andras Nemeth opened the button to 35,000 and Sebastien Compte called out of the big blind.
They went to a flop of A♥5♠K♠ where Compte check-called a bet of 35,000 from Nemeth to the Q♠ turn. Again, Compte went into check-call mode when Nemeth fired 75,000.
On the 5♣ river, both players elected to check and Compte showed K♣8♣ for a pair of kings, but he was pipped by the A♦J♣ of Nemeth, who had flopped a pair of aces.
