Molenaar Spikes an Ace to Bust Peluso Just Before the Money
Nivel 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
When it folded to Fabio Peluso on the button he raised to 30,000 with roughly 170,000 behind. Michel Molenaar three-bet to 135,000 from the small blind, and after the big blind folded, Peluso shoved for his remaining chips. Molenaar called to put Peluso at risk of elimination.
Fabio Peluso: K♠K♦ 
Michel Molenaar: A♥4♥
Peluso was in a great spot to double up right on the right bubble, but he had to avoid an ace or some hearts to do so.
The flop of A♠6♦3♣ was devastating for Peluso as Molenaar took a commanding lead with a pair of aces. The 8♥ hit the turn, which meant Peluso needed to find one of the two remaining kings in the deck to stay alive. The river was the 3♠ and Peluso was sent to the rail empty-handed.
