Khosravi Busts with Aces

Pontus Khosravi can say he got his money in with the best of it. After Toni Judet opened the pot with a raise to 40,000, Khosravi reraised from late position to 110,000. Action folded back to Judet, who thought briefly before moving all in. Khosravi, who had fewer chips than Judet, almost beat him into the pot when he called with {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds}. Judet had been making a move with {J-Spades} {10-Spades}, but was rewarded when the flop came down {J-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {9-Hearts}. Khosravi couldn't come up with anything better than a single pair when the board bricked out {2-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}.

"Sorry," said Judet. "I'm ashamed to show that hand." Shame or not, he moves over the two-million-chip mark.
