Ace High Is Good

Level 28 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Action folded around to Charles Coultas in late position and he raised it up to 190,000. Marty Zabib called from the button and the blinds got out of the way. The dealer produced a flop of {7-Spades}{7-Spades}{3-Clubs} and both players checked their option.

Fourth street was the {2-Clubs} and Coultas checked for a second time. Zabib bet 225,000 and Coultas called. The {7-Hearts} completed the board and Coultas check called a bet once again. This time the magic number was 375,000. Zabib showed {K-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} for king-high but was behind Coultas' {A-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for ace-high.
