Sarkis Gets Paid With Aces
Level 8
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Tony Aziz raised to 5,000 in early position and received two callers before Wael Sarkis three-bet to 20,000 on the button. Only Aziz called.
The flop came J?2?8? and Sarkis continued for 25,000. Aziz called and the 7? turn was checked through.
The river was the 7? and Sarkis bet another 60,000. Aziz tanked into the break before calling as Sarkis showed A?A?. Aziz mucked A?J? and Sarkis raked in the big pot.
