Sexton Gives a Little WSOP History Lesson

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Mike Sexton moved all in from the button, which got a fold from the small-blind player and Chris Ferguson in his big blind. Sexton then said, "The Chris Ferguson hand" as he tabled {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs} and scooped the pot.

There were a few younger players at the table who were unaware of what Sexton was talking about, so Sexton was kind enough to let his other tablemates know that Ferguson was holding ace-nine when he won the 2000 WSOP Main Event.
