After a player in late position opened for 575 Marco Johnson raised to 1,800. The other player reraised to 6,575 and Johnson moved all in for 16,725. The other player called and indeed had pocket aces, leaving Johnson's {A-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} in dire straits. The board ran out {9-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {5-Hearts} {J-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} and Johnson's day came to an abrupt end.
