Teach Expels Opponent

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

Ken "Teach" Aldridge opened to 2,100 from middle position, and the action folded to a player in the small blind who three-bet shoved for 16,900. The player in the big blind released his hand, and the action was back on the 2009 World Series of Poker bracelet winner.

Aldridge tanked for the better part of a minute, and then made the call.

Aldridge: {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Opponent: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}

There was an ace in the window of the flop, prompting the entire table to groan is dismay, and when the dealer spread the entire flop ({a-Spades}{8-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}), a second ace appeared.

It was all over when the {8-Diamonds} turned, giving Aldridge aces full of eights, and the {j-Diamonds} completed the board.

Aldridge now sits with roughly 90,000 chips.
