River Saves Legoff

Eric Legoff was just all in and at risk with {J-Spades}{10-Diamonds} against the {A-Spades}{10-Hearts} of Timothy Adams. The flop came an interesting {Q-Clubs}{10-Spades}{K-Spades}, pairing both and creating straight possibilities as well. By the {6-Hearts} turn, Legoff's supporters on the rail were starting to call for an ace.

The dealer then delivered the river... the {A-Hearts}. "Ace, ace, ace!" yelled the rail, and Legoff couldn't help but smile as he keeps his seat.
