Tsai's Fives Hold Against Ace-High
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Eric Tsai opened raised the small blind to an amount that put a short-stacked Andras Nemeth all in.
Nemeth made the call and tabled A?3?, Tsai showed 5?5?.
Andras Nemeth: A?3?
Eric Tsai: 5?5?
The flop of J?2?J? was clean for Tsai's pocket pair, and the J? turn gave Tsai a full house and left Nemeth drawing to three outs.
The river 9? gave Tsai the win and sent Nemeth to the rail.
