Bronshtein Has the Better Ace
Level 32
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 6,000 ante
Yuval Bronshtein raised to 125,000 from the cutoff with A?Q? and Sam Soverel called on the button holding A?9?.
The flop came J?4?2? and Bronshtein bet another 85,000. Soverel called with ace-high as the 2? fell on the turn.
Bronshtein checked and Soverel bet 215,000. Bronshtein, with the nut-flush draw, peeked back at his cards before calling to the K? river, where he checked again.
Soverel checked behind and Bronshtein took the pot with his queen-kicker.
