Chaoui Survives
Niveau 14
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Mehdi Chaoui shoved for 18,000 from the cutoff and Konstantin Voronin called from the big blind to try and bust him.
Mehdi Chaoui: A♦Q♦
Konstantin Voronin: 9♣9♥
It was a flip that Chaoui needed to win to stay alive in the event. The board ran out A♣8♠3♦A♥2♦ to give Chaoui the best hand with trip aces, and he doubled up.
