William Misener Says Presto

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

With his stack sitting around 11 big blinds, William Misener knew it was time make a move with the first decent hand he ran into. When he looked down to find {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}, the pocket pair was all the motivation he needed to move his stack into the middle.

He was quickly called by an opponent, however, and the sign of strength let Misener know he was likely behind.

"You probably got me, but..." said Misener, his voice trailing off as he saw the caller roll over {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}. "Aces again? I'ts always those dang aces."

The dealer then burned and turned, and wouldn't you know it, the first card on the flop was the {5-Clubs}. The {6-Diamonds} and {7-Hearts} filled out the flop, and although there were chop possibilities when the {3-Clubs} came down on the turn, the {K-Hearts} on the river left Misener with the winning hand.
