Aces Then Kings Then Aces: Khorshad Sagor Finally Has a Top-Tier Hand Hold Up and Doubles Thru Yita Choong

Level 28: 75,000 / 125,000 ante: 125,000

Chipleader Yita Choong raises from the hijack to 250,000, Khorshad Sagor moves all in from the small blind for 2,660,000, and Choong thinks for a bit before he calls with A♥ Q♣ .

After having pocket aces and pocket kings the two previous hands, Sagor turns over -- A♦ A♥ .

But Sagor's premium hands have lost the previous two pots, so his demeanor with the aces is a little more subdued than it otherwise might be.

There is queen in the window as the flop comes K♥ Q♠ 5♥ , giving Choong some outs to crack Sagor's aces.

The turn card pairs the board with the 5♣ , and Choong needs a queen on the river.

The river card is the 9♣ , and the aces hold up for Sagor to win the pot and double up in chips. Thankfully for Sagor, his premium hand held up in the biggest and most important pot of the three.
