State’s Aces Crush Beresford’s Sixes
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Adrian-Sorel State opened the action from under the gun with a raise to 3,000. Conor Beresford, sitting on the button, responded by moving all in for roughly 17,000. Without hesitation, State snap-called, and the cards went on their backs.
Conor Beresford: 6♠6♣
Adrian-Sorel State: A♠A♦
Beresford looked for a flip, but State’s pocket aces had him dominated. The flop came A♥9♦5♣, giving State an immediate set and leaving Beresford in dire straits. The 10♦ on the turn sealed his fate, making the 10♣ river a mere formality.
Beresford exited the tournament as State added another significant pot to his growing stack.
