Altinbas No Longer Jacked Up

Shamus

Garrett Beckman pushed all in for 127,000 from middle position, and Oktay Altinbas made the call from the small blind. Beckman turned over {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{9-Spades}

and Altinbas {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

{J-Diamonds}

.

As the players stood up, Altinbas started to become animated. "No ace! C'mon, no ace!" he shouted. Then, "jack, jack." He actually started doing jumping jacks as he called out his requests. Whether he realized he was a visual pun is unclear.

Alas, an ace flopped -- {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Hearts}

{5-Diamonds}

. And the turn and river -- {4-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{3-Diamonds}

-- didn't help Altinbas. He's now down to 11,000, while Beckman has 172,000.
