Hikosaka Limps Aces; Runs Into Quads

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Keisuke Hikosaka and Mladen Ivanov limped in and Carl Gustav Jacob Ohlund raised to 4,500 on the button, both opponents called. On the {J-Hearts}{J-Spades}{J-Clubs} flop the action checked to Ohlund and he continued for 3,500. Hikosaka check-raised all in and Ivanov asked for a count before calling the shove worth 18,300. Ohlund let go within a few moments and the cards were turned over.

Keisuke Hikosaka: {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}
Mladen Ivanov: {J-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

Even before the showdown, Hikosaka had shaken his head as if he already knew his fate. It was all over after the {2-Clubs} turn and the meaningless {10-Diamonds} river completed the board.
