Molitor Finds a Five to Double Up

Level 13
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Alex Kim opened to 6,500 from the cutoff and was called by Brandon Mincher on the button. Then the small blind Joseph Molitor three-bet all in for 50,000. Kim folded and Mincher quickly called to put Molitor at risk.
Joseph Molitor: A?5?
Brandon Mincher: A?Q?
Molitor was dominated by the bigger ace of Mincher, but once the board ran out 9?3?5?10?2? Molitor had the best hand with a pair of fives, to secure the double up.
