Kings and Aces

Guillem Cusco Bach raised to 215,000 with the As9d and Josep Maria Galindo Lopez three-bet to 480,000 with Ah in the cutoff. That did the trick and everybody mucked their cards.

A few minutes later, Sviatoslav Shturyn opened to 225,000 in the hijack and Ba Minh Pham three-bet the button for 515,000. Shturyn made the call and they saw a flop of Qd. A continuation bet was check-called and the pot had grown to more than 2 million before the As turn and river were checked through. Shturyn showed Js and that ended up second-best to the KsKd of Pham.
