I Saw The Nine And It Opened Up My Eyes

We don't know if Fabrice Soulier is a big Ace of Base fan but he's just received a full double up back over his starting stack by winning a crucial flip.

There was an early position raise to 150 and Soulier made the call in the small blind with 1,400 behind. The big blind then moved all-in and the original raiser folded. The Frenchman debated making the call, finally putting all his chips in with {9-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} against the big blind's {A-Hearts} {Q-Spades}.

Indicating to the original raiser he said, "I hope you folded an ace."

The board came {9-Hearts} {K-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} {4-Spades} {A-Clubs} and Soulier's trip aces scooped the pot to put him back up to 3,300.
