Andrian Wakes Up With Kings to Leave Alajmi on Fumes
Level 33
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Abdullah Alajmi raised to 1,800,000 on the button, Simone Andrian three-bet to 5,000,000, and Alajmi called.
The flop came 4?6?8? and Andrian pushed his entire stack of 16,550,000 forward. Alajmi burned through multiple time banks as he tanked for several minutes before calling.
Simone Andrian: K?K?
Abdullah Alajmi: A?8?
Andrian was ahead with his pair of kings, while Alajmi needed help with his pair of eights to end the tournament. He didn't improve on the 9? turn, while the 2? river locked up a massive double up for Andrian as he left Alajmi with less than three big blinds.
