Woodhead's Ace Outkicks Shylkou's Ace
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Stanislau Shylkou opened to 5,000 from the cutoff and was called by Stephen Woodhead in the big blind.
Both players checked on the 4?8?2? flop and then Woodhead led out for 4,500 on the 6? turn. Shylkou called.
The 4? completed the board and both players again checked. Neither player looked like they wanted to show and Woodhead turned over A?9?. Shylkou showed he held Ax3x for an ace with a lower kicker and mucked — conceding the pot to Woodhead.
