McPherson Spikes Ace
Level 15
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
A player limped from the button before Chris McPherson jammed from the small blind and was called by the big blind for 27,500 to be at risk.
Opponent: K♥K♦
Chris McPherson: A♥Q♥
McPherson needed help to eliminate his opponent, and the flop did make him wait long as it fanned out 4♣A♦2♣ to improve McPherson to a pair of aces.
The Q♣ turn gave McPherson two pair as his opponent began to stand up from his seat. The 6♠ river completed the board and awarded McPherson the pot as his opponet hit the rail.
