Vazquez's Aces Triumph Over Toma's Bluff
Niveau 17
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
On the bubble, Tsugunari Toma decided to raise to 300,000 from the hijack. Alejandro Vazquez then went all in with 254,000, prompting everyone else to fold.
Before the tournament director arrived to announce the hand, it was evident that Vazquez was very excited, while Toma seemed displeased. As it came to showdown, Vazquez revealed A♠A♥ and Toma showed 8♥2♠. It was bad timing for a bluff.
Unfortunately for Toma, the board didn't help his hand, allowing Vazquez to double up and become the owner of over 500,000 in chips.
