Saveikis Thanks the Shuffling Machine
Level 27
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Algirdas Saveikis made it 200,000 from middle position and only Jose Puertas called from the big blind.
The dealer fanned out a flop of K♠8♥K♦ and Puertas opted to check. Saveikis fired a continuation-bet of 150,000, which was enough to get Puertas to fold. As the pot was sent to Saveikis, he turned over A♠A♥ for a pair of aces.
On the next hand, Saveikis raised to 200,000, and everyone folded. Saveikis revealed A♠K♠ after which he said, "Good machine," then kissed his palm and softly caressed the shuffling machine in the middle of the table.
