"If You Have an Ace, You Always Have a Chance"

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante
Allen Kessler
Allen Kessler

Allen Kessler opened to 2,100 in middle position, and a player on the button jammed for 8,750. When action folded back to him, Kessler declared that he loved the spot he was in but knew he was going to lose.

Kessler: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Button: {a-Spades}{8-Spades}

Kessler pointed knowingly as the flop came {8-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}, and the {a-Hearts} even came on the turn to leave "Chainsaw" dead.

Kessler exchanged barbs with his opponent after the hand.

"You want to get your money in with 28 percent equity, go ahead," he said.

"If you have an ace, you always have a chance," the player replied.
