Ah-Nien Doubles Through Karrim
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Patrice Ah-Nien jammed for 16,500 from an early position and was isolated by the eager Ahmed Karrim in an attempt to run up his starting stack in the last level of the registration period.
Ah-Nien was ahead with A♠2♥ versus 5♦2♦ but predicted "I lose" as of the K♦Q♥10♦ flop. The 4♣ turn and K♠ river kept the ace of Ah-Nien ahead. "I only looked at one card," he said and that was presumably the ace and not the deuce.
