Whalen Slowplays Aces to Perfection

Tim Baker

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Korte Yeo raised from the cutoff and William Whalen called from the big blind.

Whalen knuckled it over to Yeo on the 6♠9♣J♦ flop, and Yeo fired a continuation-bet of 16,000. Whalen check-jammed for around 70,000, which Yeo called.

William Whalen: A♠A♦ All in
Korte Yeo: Q♣J♠

Whalen had slow-played aces to perfection and found the perfect flop to get action.

Yeo didn't find any assistance on the 5♠ turn or 10♦ river, and he had to send over a small portion of his stack to Whalen.
