Aerts Continues to Double
Level 14
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
On the last hand before dinner break, Mikita Badziakouski raised to 40,000 from under the gun, Jean-Noel Thorel called in middle position and Pieter Aerts three-bet jammed for 188,000 from the button. Badziakouski isolated and Thorel folded.
Pieter Aerts: A?K?
Mikita Badziakouski: A?Q?
Aerts had a dominating holding, but the 9?2?Q? flop reversed the lead in favor of Badziakouski.
The 5? turn added a flush draw for Aerts, then the K? river saw him retake the lead with top pair and he doubled up once more.
