Hougaard Rockets Ahead

[user46392]

Mr. Hougaard

We caught up with Marc Goodwin and Jesper Hougaard looking down at an {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

{4-Spades}

{2-Diamonds}

flop. Goodwin in the big blind position checked, and then called 400 from Hougaard in mid position.

The turn was the {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

and Goodwin check-called 1,050 from Hougaard; Goodwin also check-called 2,600 on the {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

river before mucking when Hougaard turned over {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{A-Diamonds}

.

"That's the one hand you've had all day," mused Goodwin.

"Nah," Hougaard told him, "It's just the first time I've had aces."

Goodwin claimed pocket jacks and dips to 26,000; Hougaard is up to around 35,000.
