Young's Stack Soars After Flopping Aces Full
Level 27
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Orson Young opened to 220,000 from early position and was called by Toby Gibson in middle position and Peter Bloch in the big blind.
Action checked through on the 7♠7♣A♠ flop and Bloch led out for 450,000 on the 5♠ turn. Both Young and Gibson called.
The 9♦ completed the board and Bloch checked to Young, who bet 1,700,000. Gibson called, but then Bloch check-raised all in for 5,260,000. Young called and Gibson tanked for some time before folding what he claimed was K♠10♠ for the nut flush.
Bloch turned over J♥7♥ for trip sevens and Young tabled A♣A♦ for aces full of sevens to take down the monster pot and eliminate Bloch from contention.
