Aissaoui Runs Into Martinovic's Aces
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
After an open to 2,200 by a player in early position called by Mohamed Aissaoui in the hijack, Dragoljub Martinovic three-bet to 5,500 from the button. The initial raiser folded, but Aissaoui called.
The dealer fanned a flop of 3?4?5?, and Aissaoui checked. Martinovic then pushed forward his pile of blue chips, forcing Aissaoui to go all in if he called, and he eventually did with his last 24,400 chips.
Mohamed Aissaoui: 9?9?
Dragoljub Martinovic: A?A?
Aissaoui called with a pair higher than the board but ran into Martinovic's aces. After the turn 8? and the river Q?, Aissaoui was eliminated.
