"Can You Beat Aces?"

Level 18 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

On one of the last hands of Level 19, Lee Childs raised to 7,000 in middle position. The action folded to Carlos Pipitone, who three-bet to 13,000 from the small blind, and Childs made the call.

The flop fell {q-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{9-Spades}, and Pipitone led out for 13,000. Childs tank-called.

The turn brought the {7-Clubs}, and Pipitone slowed down, checking to Childs who reached for chips. He fired 22,5000, sending Pipitone into the tank.

"Can you beat aces?" he asked Childs.

Childs didn't answer.

"Ok," he said. "I'm all in."

Pipitone simultaneously moved all his chips (around 60,000 more) forward and exposed {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} for a pair of aces. Confused, Childs called for the floor. When the floor arrived, he folded, and the player received a one-round penalty.

Childs now has 170,000 chips, while Pipitone sits with 135,000.
