Petcu Gets Paid With Aces
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Four players built a pot of around 50,000 as they went to a flop of 4?K?8?. Action then checked to Elvis Petcu on the button who moved all in for 41,000.
Suhan Guler was in the small blind and tanked for several minutes before calling, while both Yakov Bar El and Fabian Rolli got out of the way.
Elvis Petcu: A?A?
Suhan Guler: J?J?
Petcu was ahead with his aces and poised for a double up as the board ran out 6?6?, earning him the pot. Bar El said after the hand he folded two queens.
"I was folding anyway. I thought he had a king," Bar El said.
