Anthony Zinno three-bet to 18,000 preflop before Jonathan Jaffe reraised to 50,000. Zinno used a time bank before he came back with a reraise to 120,000.
Jaffe used his own two time banks before. he called. The flop came 4♣6♦3♣ and Zinno continued for 75,000. Jaffe then shoved all in and Zinno snap-called with a nearly identical stack.
Zinno opened up K♣K♠, but found out the bad news when Jaffe showed A♦A♥. At risk of decimation early in the match, Zinno saw the 7♦ fall on the turn, followed by the 5♦ on the river to put a straight on the board and chop the pot.
"It's only fair. Aces versus kings fairly deep in a heads-up match," Jaffe said with a smile as he was denied the massive pot.
Jaffe is sitting right underneath a big screen inside the Paris Ballroom that is showing an old episode from the 2013 Main Event where he was seated at the feature table. "It doesn't go well," he said while watching himself from a decade ago.
