Boivin Cracks Reixach's Aces for Huge Double-Up
Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Thomas Boivin raised to 40,000 from under the gun, receiving a call from Quan Zhou in the small blind. Serg Reixach then squeezed in a three-bet to 180,000 from the big blind, after which Boivin moved all in for 765,000.
Zhou quickly got out of the way but Reixach instantly called as the cards were flipped over.
Thomas Boivin: K♦K♣
Sergi Reixach: A♦A♣
The ultimate cooler had happened, and it was looking like Reixach would scoop up the monster pot when the board ran out 6♦Q♦2♦10♣. However, the K♥ river saw Boivin hit one of his two outs to claim it all.
Reixach was left with 20 big blinds to play with while Boivin obtained 80 of them.
