Aces Hold for Polito
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Laurent Polito opened to 2,300 from middle position and was called by an opponent in the next seat. The player on the button moved all in for 14,000, and Polito called. The other player folded.
Opponent: 8?8? 
Laurent Polito: A?A?
Polito was in good shape, and the A?K?J? flop left the opponent drawing to running eights or clubs.
The 7? turn provided the opponent with some hope, but the 10? was a brick, with Polito scooping the pot and sending his opponent to the rail.
