Carlos Aoun moved all in for 1,275,000 under the gun and Renato Minicuci called on the button.
Carlos Aoun: A?5?

"I only looked at this," Aoun said as he showed his ace first. He found out he was dominated, but the K?5?2? flop gave him the lead with a pair of fives. The 4? turn left him one card from a double up, but Minicuci spiked the J? on the river to win the pot and send Aoun to the rail in 14th place.
