Lots of Aces

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Local Dan Norman was under the gun plus one when he opened it up to 300. Oliver Gill was the lone caller three spots to his left and with the rest of the table out of the way, including the blinds, the dealer flipped over a {4-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{5-Spades} flop.

Norman led for 700 here and Gill made a fairly quick call. Both players then checked the {a-Spades} turn and the {a-Hearts} completed the board on the river. At this point, Norman led for 1,200.

“This is so tough because you could be value betting worse,” Gill sighed as he leaned back in his chair. “I can’t see a situation where I win though.”

Gill then folded his {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} face up.

“Why didn’t you call!” Norman shouted, tabling his {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} for quad aces.
