Nader Cracks Aces to Double

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Amjad Nader
Amjad Nader

Three players, including Amjad Nader in middle position, put in 23,000 before Azizjon Rakhimov, in the cutoff, three-bet to 90,000.

Only Nader called as the flop came {j-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades}. Rakhimov continued for 26,000 and Nader called to the {9-Spades} turn. Rakhimov bet another 100,000 and Nader tanked for a moment before announcing he was all in for 330,000.

Rakhimov snap-called with {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}, but Nader showed him {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for two pair. Standing up from his seat to await the river, the dealer turned over the {7-Clubs} and Nader loudly slapped his hands together in celebration as he secured the double up.

"Nice hand, sir," was all Rakhimov could say after the hand as he paid off Nader.
