Castro Doesn't Always Have Ace King

Level 2 : 100/200, 200 ante

Gordie Clark bet 1,000 from the cutoff on a 1010Q flop, and early position player Rick Castro called. Both players checked a J turn.

When the river came 5, Castro came out of hiding and led out for 1,500. Clark called and Castro showed K10 for flopped trips.

Castro told Ron Groeller at the end of his table, "See, I don't always have ace king!"

Groeller told PokerNews "I prefer to be named as Ron 'High Roller' Groeller, but as short stacked as I am, you can call me 'Groupon' Ron."
