Brian Norton raised to 5,000 from middle position and Shiva Dudani and Quinn Do came along from the blinds.
All players checked the ![]()
![]()
flop and the
double paired the board. Dudani announced a pot-sized bet and he was handling just under that, pushing all in for 14,000. Do folded but Norton called after considering his options.
Dudani: ![]()
![]()

Norton: ![]()

![]()
Both players had ace-deuce and Dudani was freerolling a low. He failed to do so, but the
river gave him a full house and Dudani secured a double.
"What did you call with?" Norton asked, leaning forward. Dudani replied that he had ace-deuce.
"Any suits?"
Dudani again repeated "ace-deuce".
"Well played, sir," Norton said with a little bit of sarcasm in his tone. Dudani laughed and stacked his new chips.
