Najeem Ajez raised it up from under the gun and was called by Colby Covington on the button along with the big blind. The flop came A77 and Ajex continued with a bet of 2,500. Covington called and the big blind got out of the way.

The 6 landed on the turn and both players checked to the 5 on the river. Ajez fired out another bet of 3,000 and Covington raised to 11,000. Ajez looked him up and Covington turned over 66 to scoop the pot.

"You're good at poker, you might have to change professions soon," one player at the table piped up.

"I'm not that good, or else I would have a long time ago," Covington replied.
