Budzakoski Rockets Hold For Double Up

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Nikola Budzakoski bet 10,000 from early position and was met with a raise from Ezekeil Shelton in the small blind for 28,000.

Budzakoski fired back for 75,000 which put Shelton in the tank. Eventually, Shelton opted to move all in to put Budzakoski at risk for 231,000. He snap-called.

Nikola Budzakoski: AA
Ezekeil Shelton: 1010

It was bad timing for Shelton who ran into the pocket aces of Budzakoski. The board of K8224 was clean to complete the double-up for the man from Indiana.
