Mighall Gets Aces
Level 23
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Phillip Mighall in early position opened to 60,000 and Zachary Hirst in the big blind called to see the flop.
The flop came A♣6♣2♥. Hirst shoved all in for 275,000 and Mighall snap-called taking them to showdown.
Zachary Hirst: K♣8♣7♣7♠
Phillip Mighall: A♦A♥8♦5♣
Mighall was ahead with a set of aces. Hirst prepared to leave and got on his feet, but remained to watch the dealer peel a 10♦ turn and a J♠ river.
As Hirst was leaving the table, Mighall exclaimed, "Finally I got aces."
