Aces No Good for Nolet
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Florian Duta opened to 4,000 under the gun and was met with a three-bet to 12,500 by Guillaume Nolet two seats along.
Duta thought for a while and then produced a four-bet to 27,000. After quite a bit of thought, Nolet just called.
The flop came K?2?Q? and Duta slid out a bet of 9,000, which Nolet called.
On the 5? turn Duta continued with a bet of 17,000 and Nolet again called, again after a fair bit of thought.
On the 8? river Duta emptied the clip and moved all in for 47,500. Nolet thought about it, but made a reasonably quick call.
Duta showed K?K? for top set and Nolet had A?A? for a pair of aces in a complete cooler.
As he raked in the pot, Duta said "Unlucky, I thought so, it was either aces or queens".
