Ali Holds for Once in His Life
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Ricky Ali moved all in preflop and the player to his left moved all in behind for less, as the rest of the table got out of the way.
Opponent: K♦Q♦
Ricky Ali: A♥9♥
"Wait, I'm ahead??" Ali was genuinely shocked, "Can I hold for once in my life??"
The flop of 10♠5♠3♦ was safe for him, but the turn 7♦ brought in a flush draw for his opponent.
"Don't look, don't look!" Ali shouted and threw up his hands, but the river was the brick 3♥ to score him the pot while the other player made his exit.
