Martinez Doubles with Aces

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Jesus Martinez peeled aces on the button and squeezed over a raise from early position and a flat-call. Both players called him and we arrived for the action on the {Q-Spades}{2-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} flop where Martinez fired 7,000 in position. The opener check-raised to 21,000, getting rid of the third player. Martinez matched the price and they saw the {2-Clubs} hit the felt.

Martinez faced a bet of 40,000 and pushed all his chips towards the middle, making it just 1,400 more. His rival called with {Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs} but Martinez' {A-Hearts}{A-Spades} prevailed after the {8-Diamonds} river.
