Bob Slezak Is a Pocket Ace Machine

After a raised flop of {10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}, Ken Lawrence moves all in under the gun, Bob Slezak calls from middle position, and another player folds. Lawrence shows {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}, and Slezak chuckles as he shows {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}. One player says to Slezak, "You really *do* have aces all the time!"

Slezak has had three all-in situations today (before this one) with pocket aces. On this occasion, Lawrence sums it up, "Even when *I've* got aces, you've got aces."

The last two cards are {4-Spades}{J-Clubs}, and the pot is chopped up between them. Lawrence has about 210,000, and Slezak has about 330,000.
