Corpening Snaps Off Opponent With Ace High
Level 16
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Action was picked up on a board that read 
with a pot of about 50,000 in the middle already. The player first to act bet 35,000 and was instantly called by Kashka Corpening. Corpening's opponent showed the 
for air and Corpening tabled 
for ace high which was good enough to take the decent sized pot.
A few players at the table were impressed by the call and told Corpening good call, while his opponent shook his head and told a nearby observer to check out the hand, seemingly unable to believe he was called by ace high that swiftly.
