Ali-In

Ali Sarkeshik opened with {A-}{3-} and received one caller. He then pushed all in on a {9-}{10-}{J-} flop, only for his opponent to snap-call. In the end, it wasn't the best of situations for Sarkeshik, as his opponent flipped over {K-}{Q-} for the flopped nuts. No assistance on future streets and Sarkeshik was sent to the rail.

"It's only when someone new comes to the table," reported Sarkeshik in the aftermath. "I haven't played a hand for five levels. People who've seen would probably fold ace-queen. I only looked at one card."
