Lexy Did you See That One? Cracked Aces

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Armand Anicete raised from under the gun to 40,000 and Matt Salsberg three-bet to 155,000 from early position and Anicete flat called.

The flop arrived with 785 and Anicete checked. Salsberg moved all in for about 200,000 and Anicete quickly called.

Matt Salsberg: A9 All in
Armand Anicete: AA

Salsberg needed some help which he received in the form of a straight when the turn was the 6 and the river was the 4.

Lexy Gavin-Mather was at the table, so Salsberg leaned over and said, "Lexy did you see that? That was a good one."
