Kings Take Down Aces

Level 7 : 200/400, 0 ante

After an open to 900 from under the gun and a flat from Sasha Barrese in middle position, Renan Niehues announced "pot" to bump it to 4,450. The button four-bet jammed for his remaining stack of 4,000 with the UTG player and Barrese getting out of the way.

Niehues tabled {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} and was behind the button's {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}. That would not remain the case for long as a {K-Diamonds} was shown in the window to reveal a flop of {K-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{5-Clubs} putting Niehues well in the lead. The {Q-Diamonds} turn and {Q-Hearts} river then made Niehues kings full of queens, cracking his opponent's aces and sending him to the exit.
