Keating Spikes the Turn to Crack Elias' Aces
Niveau 8
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Alex Keating raised to 35,000 under the gun and Raj Vohra called on the button. Darren Elias then three-bet to 130,000 in the small blind and Keating moved all in. Vohra folded, but Elias snap-called for 500,000.
Darren Elias: A♠A♦ 
Alex Keating: 9♠9♥
Elias had picked up aces and was a big favorite to double up as the flop came 8♥J♥8♣, but Keating spiked the 9♦ on the turn to make a full house. The river was the 7♥ and Elias was sent to the rail.
"Sorry, Darren," Keating said.
"It's alright," Elias said as he made a quick walk towards the exit.
