Russian Grinder harrrrmonica Cracks Aces

Level 25 : 12,500/25,000, 3,125 ante

HappyMonkey9 opened from early position to 51,251 and Russia's harrrrmonica called from the big blind. Harrrrmonica checked-shoved for 263,544 the {q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} flop before HappyMonkey9 bet 71,963.

harrrrmonica: {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
HappyMonkey9: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}

HappyMonkey9 fell very behind in the hand after the {8-Diamonds} hit the turn giving his opponent a flush. The {5-Clubs} was unhelpful for HappyMonkey9 to gain a bigger flush, and his stack took a dent down to 642,788. Meanwhile, harrrrmonica got a much needed double to 670,215.

SalsaFiesta: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
HappyMonkey9: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}
