Career Change On The Cards?

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

Gary Ablett Jr. is no stranger to high pressure situations, having to live through it year round in the Australian Football League with high expectations from the whole country as a premiership player, Brownlow medalist and a reputation as the best footballer Australia has to offer.

But this isn't Aussie Rules football, this is poker.

The action folded to Ablett Jr. in late position he made it 1,000 to go. The player directly to his left made a min-raise and Ablett Jr. called.

The board then ran out {7-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{5-Spades}, with both players checking it down to the river.

Ablett Jr turned over {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades} defeating the {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades} of his opponent.

As Ablett Jr. raked in his new chips he shrugged, looking unsure as to whether he could have got more chips out of his opponent.
