button in SafariMalekian Cracks Soria's Aces
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
The action was recounted to PokerNews by players at the table.
Frederic Soria opened from the hijack before Adam Duong three-bet from the cutoff. Ramin Malekian put in the four-bet on the button before Soria five-bet shoved for approximately 35,000. Duong folded, but Malekian made the call to put Soria at risk.
Frederic Soria: A♠A♣
Ramin Malekian: 10♦10♠
Soria was well ahead with his aces, and the flop did not bring any disappointment for Soria when it came 2♦7♠J♣ to keep his aces in front.
The turn was disastrous for Soria as the 10♥ peeled to give Malekian a set of tens.
Soria was unable to regain the lead when the 9♦ river hit to show Soria the exit early on Day 1b.
