Oliver Summons Ace on the River
Level 25
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Justin Oliver moved all in from late position for roughly 450,000 and was at risk against Peter Bigelow on the button, who made the call.
Justin Oliver: A♠K♠
Peter Bigelow: Q♦10♦
Things weren’t looking good for Oliver as the dealer spread the Q♣6♥8♥8♣ on the table. Before the river came, Oliver began shaking his Ace, summoning a Barry Greenstein–type aura. The dealer obliged, dropping the A♦ on the river to keep Oliver’s hopes alive. Bigelow grinned and joked, “That’s not fair, you can’t shake the Ace,” prompting laughter around the table. Another tablemate chimed in, “Good thing you didn’t shake the King, then you’d be drawing dead.”
