"The Animal" Mackenzie's Aces are Good for a Double

Livello 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Andrew "The Animal" Mackenzie raised to 6,000 under the gun and a player two to his left tossed in 8,000, not seeing his raise. He was forced to reraise to 9,000 and the action folded back to Mackenzie who jammed all-in for 25,000. His opponent called.

Andrew Mackenzie: A♣A♥
Opponent: A♠5♣

The dealer ran out the J♥9♣8♦J♠K♥ board, and Mackenzie's aces were good as he pulled in the pot.

Aces For Eva Yvette

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Eva Yvette was facing an all-in wager from Ben Yu for less than a starting stack. At first instinct, Yvette asked for a count and quickly shook off her own question, as she said she was calling.

Ben Yu: K♠J♣
Eva Yvette: A♣A♦

The flop came the K♣5♦Q♥, which prompted Yvette out of her seat to sweat the turn and river, which came the 8♥ and the 7♥ to secure another pot in her favor. It seems it wasn't the first one she had scooped in the last while, as Yvette is amongst the chip leaders.

Eva Yvette	320,000 320,000	320,000
Ben Yu	Eliminato
