'Hu Wins?' and Aces Cracked
Niveau 25
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
David Hu raised in early position to 125,000 and was called by Paul DeGiulio on his left, as well as Ryan Coon in the big blind.
The flop rolled A♠Q♦J♣ and Coon tapped the table. Hu wagered 150,000 and was called by both his opponents.
The turn was the 4♣. Action checked around. The river brought the Q♣ and was followed by another round of checks.
DeGiulio showed a pair of kings, Coon showed two pair, and it took Hu a bit to realize he had rivered a winning flush with Jx10x8♣9♣.
On the very next hand, Paul Spitzberg cracked Hu's aces with suited connectors that made two pair, for a small rebate on Hu's double-up.
