Boeken Wins Big as Bubble Approaches
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
With less than 100 players to go before the money would be reached, Noah Boeken three-bet a raise of 12,000 from the player under the gun to 40,000 in the small blind.
His opponent called and also called when the 2♦10♥4♣ saw Boeken bet 31,000 chips. Boeken then sized up to 68,000 on the 5♦ turn and was called again.
Finally, Boeken fired 117,000 on the J♦ river and was looked up for the last time. Boeken showed A♠A♦ for a pair of aces, and his opponent flung his cards into the muck.
