With the hours dragging on and some stacks starting to look a little short, one of our shortest stacks dannyboy904 took down a nice pot heading to the last break in the nights play.
The player to his left pushed hard only to have another player come over the top harder, when the action came to dannyboy904 he made his move and pushed all-in. The initial raiser thought long and hard before getting out of the way leaving dannyboy904 heads up. Having been especially patient in the early stages of the day I was certain he would only be making such a move with a big hand, he just isn’t the reckless type. When the cards were flipped it was dannyboy904’s A-K all hearts up against pocket Queens. He got out in front real quick with an ace on the flop, and from there it was all cream. A third ace on the turn gave him the absolute nuts and a king on the river for the full house was the finishing touch on a beautiful hand. dannyboy904 quickly rocketed up from about 20,000 to 60,000. With the hand over the initial raiser was left to ponder what might have been, having laid down A-K himself, dannyboy904 was very glad not to have shared that pot.
At the last break, with the average stack at about 55,000 our chip stacks looked like this:
Halo77 100,000
BatataSC 60,000
dannyboy904 60,000
bradfish 25,000
