Level 8
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
We arrived at the table just as Kenny Shih was betting out 2,500 from under the gun plus one. The action folded around to Anyang Xu on the button, who decided to move all in for around 70,000 in chips.
With the decision falling back on Shih, he contemplated whether to commit his last 16,400 into the pot.
"He has aces. It's your chance to crack aces," joked Nick Wong, observing the hand.
Shih finally made the call after a minute, and the cards were tabled.
Shih: 
Xu: 
The board ran out 
to award Shih with the unlikeliest of victories.
"I told you you'd crack aces," said Wong, who's prediction had been correct.
