Event 7: Puleo Busts Marczynski in Aces vs. Aces Battle

$560 Deep Stack No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
Level 19: 6,000/12,000/2,000 Ante

Ron Puleo and Jenny Marczynski got the last of Marczynski’s stack in the middle in what seemed to be a friendly, harmless aces versus aces battle. Puleo held AsAc and was matched against the AhAd of Marczynski.

All was well on a QsJd9s flop.

A Ks turn brought a third spade and improved Puleo to a flush draw. Honestly, though. He couldn’t hit a flush in this spot, could he?

Sure enough. The 5s reared its ugly head on the river and the table let out a collective groan.

“In the worst way,” Puleo empathized giving Marczynski hug.

Marczynski left the tables stunned. She busted 40th earning $1,388. Puleo now holds 900,000 chips.
