Ichinose Cracks Quillin's Aces

Kosei Ichinose opened for 13,000 from early position and was three-bet by Shawn Quillin to 27,000 from middle position. Action folded back around to Ichinose, who made the call.

The flop came {J-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{7-Hearts} and Ichinose check-called a 32,000 bet from Quillin.

Both players checked the {4-Spades} turn, however, when the {9-Diamonds} completed the board, Ichinose reached for chips and fired 55,000 into the middle.

Quillin asked for a count and deliberated a bit, but eventually tossed in a call. Ichinose tabled {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs} for a set of nines.

"Wow...good river for you," Quillin said. He then tabled {A-}{A-} for pocket aces and mucked.

Ichinose, who recently won the Macau Poker Cup HK$5,400 No-Limit Hold'em Event, is up to 345,000.
