Pushing Mode

Laurence Houghton is currently pushing at every opportunity and is down to just a couple of thousand. He did find one spot though, but Gino Alacqua pushed behind with {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}. Houghton, moving after seeing a bullet, peeled back to see what the accompanying card was... {A-Spades}{6-Diamonds}.

The {8-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} gave the youngster four more outs, and although none of those arrived, the {4-Hearts} turn and {5-Diamonds} river gave both players two pair, ace high to chop it up.
