Zhou Doubles With Aces Versus Aces

Level 8 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

There was only 6,600 in the middle and the board was showing {K-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}. Xinyan Zhou was jumping out of his chair in joy while the massage girl that had been taken care of him stood back with a smile.

Soon enough, the reason for the joy became apparent, as the stack of Zhou worth 206,000 in total was counted. According to other players at the table, Zhou got into a raising war with Ben Tollerene and both got their stacks in preflop.

Tollerene had {A-}{A-}{10-}{7-} and Zhou's {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} ended up as the winner, as he turned a straight to crack aces and score a massive double.
