Lucky Ace on the River Saves Villa-Lobos

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Action folded to Nicolau Villa-Lobos on the button and he shoved for 160,000. The small blind folded and Georgios Karakousis made a quick call from the big.

Villa-Lobos: {a-Spades}{3-Hearts}
Karakousis: {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

The {A-Hearts} in the window looked good for Villa-Lobos, but the {K-Hearts} and {K-Clubs} that followed it on the flop did not. Karakousis flopped trips and left Villa-Lobos in need of an ace. The {4-Clubs} turn was not it, but as you can tell from the title of this post, the river was; in fact, it was the {A-Clubs}!
