Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Dale Hoy raised to 30,000 from early position, and it folded around to Jimmy Nickens who pushed all in from the small blind. Hoy thought a moment, then made the call.

Right after Hoy called, Nickens called out "You got ace-jack or something?" "Yeah, absolutely," replied Hoy, turning over {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{J-Spades}

. Nickens tabled {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

{7-Diamonds}

, and the race was on.

The flop came {2-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

{10-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

. The turn was the {6-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

, and Nickens was still ahead. But the {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

on the river ended his day. Hoy now has 860,000.
