Aoki Kicks A Player Out With Aces
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
On table 664, action was caught when Dennis Aoki and Ralf Russo, seated on his left, flipped their cards in an all-in and call situation.
According to Aoki, he opened from the under-the-gun position, and Russo three-bet. A player called in middle position, and then Aoki "four-bet to 20,000". Then, Russo moved all in for 16,200, putting himself at risk, and the player in middle position folded.
Ralph Russo: A♣K♦
Dennis Aoki: A♥A♦
In a very bad situation, Russo could still hope for a flush as he had a draw on 6♣3♣10♠5♣, but the 9♥ on the river didn't give him the fourth club he needed, and he has been eliminated while Aoki is back to the starting stack.
