Hovakimyan Coolers Schneible
Level 23
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
With two players seeing a board of A♠9♥8♠ and roughly 300,000 already in the middle, Sergey Hovakimyan checked from the small blind and Jordan Schneible bet 205,000 from the hijack. Hovakimyan moved all in for 1,005,000 and Schneible quickly called with a covering stack.
Sergey Hovakimyan: A♣9♣
Jordan Schneible: A♥8♥
Both players had flopped aces up but Hovakimyan was ahead with top two pair. The J♦ turn and K♦ river changed nothing and Hovakimyan dragged in a massive pot while making a dent in Schneible's stack, which is still above average despite the setback.
