"Aces? Really?"

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

Cabrera opened from middle position and found callers in Wang in the hijack and Boeree in the big blind. On a flop of {K-Clubs}{2-Spades}{5-Diamonds} Boeree checked and Cabrera bet out 1,900. Wang called and Boeree folded.

On the {8-Clubs} turn, again Cabrera chose to bet, moving 4125 chips across the line. And again, after a short pause, Wang called.

The river brought the {7-Clubs} and Cabrera slid three blue 5,000 chips out, meaning Wang had to move all-in to call.

"Aces?" asked Wang, "Pocket Aces? Really?"

Cabrera remained silent. Wang folded and his opponent instantly mucked his cards.

"Aces?" asked Selbst from the other end of the table.

"I had Ace-King" said Wang.

"I don't know if I could have folded that, responded Selbst.
