Harshad’s Aces Fail

Harshad Barve is surely fuming post this hand. Preflop action saw a player opening 2.2 BB to be called by Barve and Sukhjit Singh (J ❤ 3 ♠) on the big blind. The flop ran Q ❤ 9 ❤ 3 ❤ and this time Singh bet 2.2 BB to again get called off by both the players. Action was checked on the turn of 2c as it was a wet board and players were cautious. The river of Jd saw Singh bet 3.2 BB with his two pairs and Barve sitting with his A ♦ A ❤ raised it to 9.1 BB while Singh wasted no time in calling it and taking down the pot. We guess Barve should’ve raised on the flop/turn with Pocket Rockets as well as the nut flush draw and should not have let Singh with his J3 hand play till the river.

• Barve: A ♦ A ❤
• Singh: J ❤ 3 ♠
• Board: Q ❤ 9 ❤ 3 ❤ 2 ♣ J ♦
