Meanwhile on the other table it folded to Kenny Hallaert in the small blind, with only short-stack Ismael Bojang in the big blind.

Hallaert folded and Bojang looked down at pocket Aces, showing them to the table.

"Oh my God," said tablemate Artan Dedusha, "What a dodge!"

"It's the first time I've had nines or better today," said Bojang, chipping up slightly.
