State Six-Bet Shoves Into Ketzer's Aces

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Felipe Ketzer
Felipe Ketzer

On the direct bubble, Adrian State raised to 30,000 before Felipe Ketzer three-bet to 55,000. State four-bet to 80,000 and Ketzer five-bet to 105,000 with 75,000 behind. State six-bet shoved to put Ketzer all in, and Ketzer called.

Felipe Ketzer: AA All in
Adrian State: AK

Ketzer was in the perfect spot to double up unless a very unfortunate runout came.

The flop of Q2Q was great for Ketzer's aces as he could only lose to running cards. The 6 turn meant State was drawing dead, as an inconsequential K landed on the river, cementing the double up for Ketzer.
