Ovechkin Doubles Through Pascaud
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Leandro Dirlewanger opened to 10,000 from the hijack and was three-bet to 35,000 by Alexander Ovechkin on the button. Ludovic Pascaud called cold from the small blind and Dirlewanger folded.
Both players checked on the A?A?4? flop and then Ovechkin called a 35,000 bet from Pascaud on the 9? turn.
Pascaud bet 40,000 after the 5? completed the board and Ovechkin went all in for 43,000 total. Pascaud called and Ovechkin turned over A?K? for trip aces with a king kicker.
Pascaud couldn't beat it and mucked — awarding the double up to Ovechkin.
