Karl's Aces Held
Level 20
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
The last of Izzet Temel's chips were just claimed after he open-shipped for his last 135,000 or so.
Temel was called in one spot by Karl Held, and he asked his opponent "do you have an ace?" while tabling his own .
Unfortunately for Temel, the answer was in the affirmative, as Held silently rolled over his to put a hammerlock on the hand.
The flop rained down to provide a bit of hope for Temel, and he called for a queen to arrive for the tournament-saving chop. Twas not to be though, as the turn (
) and river (
) bricked off to leave him with no pair, and no more chips.
Held surged above the 550,000-chip plateau as the money bubble approaches, putting himself in comfortable position to earn a coveted cash.
