Penev Runs Into the Nuts
Level 3
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Three-handed on a board of 7?J?10?A?, Symeon Alexandridis bet 20,500 from the small blind and Vladimir Olesnan called in early position. Zlatin Penev then moved all in for around 45,000 in middle position.
Alexandridis gave it some thought before mucking, but Olesnan snap-called. Penev turned over A?A? for top set, but Olesnan showed him the bad news as he had K?Q? for the nut straight.
The K? completed the board and Penev was sent to the rail. "I had ace-jack," Alexandridis admitted after the hand.
