Rezaei Wakes Up With Aces

Level 22
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Andrea Radicchi raised to 80,000 in the hijack before Armin Rezaei three-bet to 175,000 on the button. Timo Kamphues in the small blind tanked for a minute before four-betting to 350,000.
Radicchi folded, but Rezaei moved all in for 650,000 and Kamphues called.
Armin Rezaei: A?A?
Timo Kamphues: A?9?
Rezaei was a big favorite with his aces as the board came 9?8?K?K?Q?. Kamphues couldn't improve beyond his flopped pair of nines as he handed over the double up.
