Roy "the boy" Aces McSweeny
vs. McSweeny's
. McSweeny had hit top pair on a
flop. We caught the hand as Brindley, from the button, moved his 40,000 stack over the line and McSweeny, in the cutoff, then considered making the call.This went on for a little while - the pot standing at 25,000. Eventually McSweeny called, saw the aces, and hoped to hit. The turn and river did not oblige and Brindley made a brief arms-in-the-air victory sign -- like someone winning the Tour de France. He doubled up to 105,000 while McSweeny is now on 30,000.
