Geshkenbein's Misfortune Continues

A very frustrated Vladimir Geshkenbein can't seem to catch a break at the unofficial feature table, though at least this time around he didn't lose any chips...

Geshkenbein opened the pot with a raise to 40,000 and when the action reached Neil Arce in the small blind, he palmed a stack of red 25,000-chips and slammed them down in the middle, putting Geshkenbein all in.

Geshkenbein made the call and when Arce tabled his hand -- pocket aces -- Geshkenbein shouted, "Jesus f**king Christ!!" and then turned over his own hand... the other two aces.

A rainbow flop killed the potential for additional drama and the two players ultimately chopped the pot.

"I have aces... he has aces... what the f**k!" said the disgruntled Swiss amateur after the hand.
