Keating Wakes Up With Aces for a Double

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Alex Keating
Alex Keating

Brandon Wilson opened to 60,000 from the cutoff, and Alex Keating three-bet shoved for 195,000 from the button. Joao Simao was down to his last 30,000 and called in the small blind, and Clemen Deng shoved from the big blind, covering all players. Wilson got out of the way, leaving Keating and Simao at risk versus Deng.

Joao Simao: 43 All in
Alex Keating: AA All in
Clemen Deng: AQ

Keating's aces were ahead on the 27Q flop while Simao had a gutshot and Deng had top pair and backdoor hearts. The J turn and 6 river were clean for Keating, who dragged in a full double while Simao was sent to the rail.
