"Steve! Steve! Come here!" Sam Khouiss yelled from across the room. Zolotow had walked off to check the score of the Lakers game after folding his hand at table Orange 19.

When Steve Zolotow got back, Sam showed him his third straight hand of pocket aces. He's flopped two sets with them already, twice against Steve Zolotow, and for his third time with them in a row he ran into pocket jacks, which managed to turn a set against him.

"I've got the usual again," he said once Steve returned to the table.
