Tim De Pater in a World of Aces

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

A recent multi-way pot saw Australian player Tim De Pater take on two shorter-stacked opponents holding {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{10-Clubs}

. One opponent flips {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{K-Clubs}

while the short-stack reveals {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{A-Clubs}

.

The flop brings {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Hearts}

{2-Diamonds}

and De Pater is devastated to see case ace on the board - "Man, where did you pull that ace from?" came the cry from De Pater.

The turn of {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

was no help, but the river brought the {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

to give De Pater a set of tens. Although he lost the main pot against the set of aces, he took down a large side pot with his two-outer on the river to collect around 30,000 chips.
