Whatever Gets It Done

A player in early position raised to 3,100, then the player to his left pushed all in for 12,200. It folded around to Will Mitchell on the button. Mitchell produced his hand-lettered sign -- "HOMELESS PLEASE FOLD" -- then pushed his stack of 20,300 in the middle.

The blinds and original raiser followed the sign's directive, and the first all in player turned over his {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}. Mitchell showed {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}.

The board came {Q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{10-Hearts}, and another player hits the rail. "First time I've had queens, kings, or aces all tourney," said Mitchell.

He now has 33,500.
