Martin Finds an Ace
Level 13
: 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
A player in middle position opened to 7,000 and James Martin three-bet shoved for 74,000 from the cutoff. The player on the button asked for confirmation of the amount, and while doing so, the small blind slid forward his stack of 94,000 before realizing action was not yet upon him. The player on the button took half a minute, still thinking about his decision, before letting his hand go.
The small blind quickly slid his stack forward once more and the middle-position player folded to bring about the heads-up all-in scenario.
James Martin: 
Small Blind: 
Martin found one of the remaining aces in the deck on the flop 
, pulling ahead where he remained through the turn 
and river 
to secure the double.
