Jewell's Aces Hold

Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante

After Chris Jewell opened from middle position for 1,700, the button jammed with the short stack of 28,000. Jewell made the call and the two tabled their hands.

Opponent: {k-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Chris Jewell: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}

Jewell was already well ahead, and the {9-Spades}{4-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{j-Spades}{q-Spades} runout did nothing to change that. Jewell scooped the pot while his opponent went for the rail. The table seemed to be in disbelief that the button had shoved with that hand. "You're lucky he didn't have one of the hands he's supposed to have there like jacks or queens," one player told Jewell.
