Eychenne Puts the Ultimate Cooler on Pustina
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Vlastimil Pustina opened the action with a raise to 2,100 from early position, which was called by Justin Sternberg in middle position. It then folded to Thomas Eychenne in the hijack, who three-bet to 8,000. It folded back to Pustina who four-bet to 21,000. Sternberg got out of the way, and Eychenne used one time bank before five betting all in for Pustina's stack of 68,500. Pustina quickly made the call to put himself at risk.
Vlastimil Pustina: K♦K♣ 
Thomas Eychenne: A♦A♣
It was the ultimate cooler for Pustina who ran his pocket kings into the aces of Eychenne. Once the board ran out 6♣5♠7♦5♥J♣ the pocket aces of Eychenne were still best, to take the pot and send Pustina to the rebuy desk.
