Lopes Hates Jacks, Loves a Baby Ace
Level 2
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Heads-up on a board of A♥7♥8♠2♦, the small blind led out for 3,500 and Edilberto Lopes called in middle position.
The river was the 8♦ and the small blind bet another 5,000. Lopes quickly called.
"You win," the small blind said, showing two jacks. Lopes turned over A♣2♥ for two pair as he took the pot.
"I don't like playing jacks," Lopes said.
"But you like ace-deuce?" his opponent replied.
"In position," Lopes added.
