Tsang Hits Quad Nines All In vs. Barbero's Aces
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Wozniak Mateusz opened for 1,600 from under the gun and Anson Tsang moved all in for his last 18,400 from early position. It folded around to Jose Barbero on the button, who grabbed a huge stack of blue chips worth roughly 80,000 and put them in front of him. Action folded back to Mateusz, who folded.
Anson Tsang: 
Jose Barbero: 
Barbero had Tsang on the ropes but the flop came 
to put Tsang out in the lead but gave Barbero a flush draw.
The turn was the 
and Tsang was one card away from a full double up.
The river was the 
, giving Tsang quad nines and Barbero was anything but happy with the outcome. "I can't win with aces today. Had aces vs. jacks, lose there. Now this. Unbelievable."
